The data in the table show how long (in minutes, t) it takes several commuters to drive to work. Find the correlation coefficient and the equation of the best fit for the data. Treat the commute distance d as the independent variable.

Given the set of data
sort
Commute data (x)
24,25,27,30, 35,35,46,50,52
Commute distance (y)
20,20,29,20,34,39,29,34,50
The line of best fit is given by
