Survey your classmates to determine what price they would be willing to pay for a candy bar. Your survey form might look like the sample to the left. a Make a table of the number of respondents who answered yes at each price level. b Make a scatter plot of your data. c Find and graph the regression line y=mp+b, which gives the number of respondents y who would buy a candy bar if the price were p cents. This is the demand equation. Why is the slope m negative? d What is the p-intercept of the demand equation? What does this intercept tell you about pricing candy bars? Would you buy a candy bar from the vending machine in the hallway if the price is as indicated. Price Yes or No 50 75 1.00 1.25 1.50 1.75 2.00arrow_forward
