Form an estimated regression model and find the estimates using OLS.

A biologist wants to test if there is any linear relationship between the amount of fertilizer supplied to aubergine plants and the subsequent yield of aubergines. She selected 2 aubergine plants of the same variety and treated them weekly with a solution in which x grams of fertilizer were dissolved in a fixed quantity of water. The yield, y kilograms of aubergines were recorded.

Aubergine	x	y
Plant A	1	1.5
Plant B	3.9	4.4
