Sales Data Analysis and Linear Functions

The video tutorial explains how to analyze sales data for a local retailer over several years. It begins by identifying sales figures for 2013 and then examines the annual increase in sales. The tutorial demonstrates how to model this data using a linear function, with a focus on determining the slope and intercept. Finally, it uses the linear model to predict sales for the year 2018.

What were the sales in the year 2013 according to the table?

• $37,000

• $30,000

• $23,000

• $16,000
