Explanation / Answer

Using regression equation, estimated severage package = -0.43 - 3.23*3 + 0.25*9 + 7.45*12000

= 89,392

She should have received a severance package of 89392,

but she received only 60000, which is less than what she should have received.

Therefore, here severage package was not fair.
