29. In 2008, the total payroll for the New York Yankees was $ 209.1 million, while the total payroll for the Tampa Bay Rays was about $ 43.8 million, or about one-fifth of the Yankees. Many people have suggested that some teams can compare winning seasons and championships spending a lot of money on the most talented jugadors available. The following table presents the payroll (in millions of dollars) for the 14 teams in Major League Baseball American League, like the total number of wins each in the 2008 season: Develop a regression model for predict the total number of wins based on the payroll of a team. According to the results of computer output, analyze how accurate the model. Use the model to predicir the number of wins a team payroll of $ 79 million.
