Regression equations are created by modeling data, such as the following:

Profit = (Cost Per Item × Number of Items) – Constant Charges

In this equation, constant charges may be rent, salaries, or other fixed costs. This includes anything that you have to pay for periodically as a business owner. This value is negative because this cost must be paid each period and must be paid whether you make a sale or not.

Your company may wish to release a new e-reader device. Based on data collected from various sources, your company has come up with the following regression equation for the profit of
