The following table shows values of ln x and ln y.

The relationship between ln x and ln y can be modelled by the regression


equation ln y = a ln x + b.

(a) Find the value of a and of b. [3]

(b) Use the regression equation to estimate the value of y when x = 3.57. [3]

(c) The relationship between x and y can be modelled using the formula
y = kxn, where k ≠ 0 , n ≠ 0 , n ≠ 1.

By expressing ln y in terms of ln x, find the value of n and of k. [7]
