Carpet City wants to develop a means to forecast its carpet sales. The store manager believes to the store's sales are directly related to the number of new housing starts in town. The manager gathered data from county records on monthly house construction permits and from store record on monthly sales. These data are as follows:

4	10
3	12
8	16
2	9
12	41
11	15
9	18
14	26
