A microcomputer manufacturer has developed a regression model relating his sales (y=$10,000s) with three independent variables. The three independent variables are price per unit(Price in $100s), advertising( ADV in $1000s) and the number of product lines (Lines). Part of the regression results is shown below.

- A grocery store is interested in how customers' income affects the amount of money they spend each week. A regression analysis is performed to test this analysis. The results of the analysis are that the intercept is $17.80 and the slope is 0.0012. The residual of one customer's weekly spending was $54.12.
