Using a linear regression calculator

see the attached figure

please wait a minute

the equation is

ŷ = -26.51X + 834.95

see the attached image of the question

Final answer

For y=670

substitute the value of y in the equation

670=-26.51x+834.95

solve for x

26.51x=834.95-670

26.51x=164.95

x=6.2 years

therefore

2003+6=2009

the final answer is year 2009
