5. What is the correlation between daily sales and daily employee hours?
6. Are daily food costs or daily employee hours more correlated with sales? Why do you think this is?
7. What is the Y intercept when X = 0 and the slope of a simple linear regression with daily sales being the independent variable (X) and daily food cost being the dependent variable (Y)?
8. What is the Y intercept when X - 0 and the slope of a simple linear regression with daily sales being the independent variable (X) and daily employee hours being the dependent variable (Y)?
