Answer:

Gas mileage is 17.29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

The total number of the model is 35

The total size of the engine is 5 ltr

The regression model is given as


36.44 - 3.829* engine\ size

From the information given in question we have

Regression equation is : model- mpg
= 36.44 - 3.829* engine\ size

Therefore for engine capacity of 5 liters;

Gas mileage
= 36.44 - 3.829* 5  = 17.29

Gas mileage is 17.29
