For the following data set, define y_new  = Log (y), and x_new  =  sqrt(-1 + 1/x), where   x_new >= 0. Here the Log is to the base 2. Using the method of least squares as we did in class, prepare a linear regression model to predict $y_new as a function of x_new. What is the predicted value of y when x=1/17?
