A jigsaw puzzle consists of many differently shaped pieces that fit together to form a picture.
Jill is doing a 1000 -piece jiggaw puzzle. She started by sorting the edge pieces from the interior pieces. Six times she stopped and counted how many of each type she had found. The following table indicates this information.
$$\begin{array}{|l|r|r|r|r|r|r|}\hline \text{Edge pieces $(x)$} & 16 & 31 & 39 & 55 & 84 & 115 \\\hline \text{Interior pieces $(y)$} & 89 & 239 & 297 & 402 & 580 & 802 \\\hline\end{array}$$
Jill models the relationship between these variables using the regression equation $y=a x+b$.
(a) Write down the value of $a$ and of $b$.
