! The regression equation y = 3.648 • 1.182^x approximates the cost to go on a safari, y, given the number of years since it opened in 2005, x. Which is the best estimate for the cost of a vehicle to drive through the safari in 2011?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The regression equation

y = 3.648 • 1.182^x

Where;

x = number of years since it opened in 2005

y = the cost to go on a safari

For this case;

x at 2011 = 2011 - 2005

x = 6 years

Substituting into the regression equation;

y = 3.648 × 1.182^(6)

y = 9.948547753694156132352

y = $9.95
