Answer:

The correct option is C) $145,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided regression.

[tex]y=82 +7x[/tex]

sales y in $1000 and advertising x in $100

We have given that they spent $900 in advertising.

That means substitute x=9 in above regression because x is in $100.

[tex]y=82 +7(9)[/tex]

[tex]y=82 +63[/tex]

[tex]y=145[/tex]

It is given that y in $1000.

That means the total sale is 145×$1000=$145000.

Hence, the correct option is C) $145,000
