Answer:

A. $66,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between sales data (in $1,000s) and advertising data (in $100s) is:

[tex]y=12+1.8x[/tex]

If  if advertising is $3,000, then x =$30, and the point estimate for sales (in thousands of dollars) is:

[tex]y(30)=12+1.8*30\\y=66[/tex]

Converting it to dollars, the point estimate for sales is:

[tex]S=1,000*66\\S=\$66,000[/tex]
