$$\begin{array} { | c | c | } \hline \text { Customers } & \text { Sales (Thousands of Dollars) } \\\hline 907 & 11.20 \\\hline 926 & 11.05 \\\hline 713 & 8.21 \\\hline 741 & 9.21 \\\hline 780 & 9.42 \\\hline 698 & 10.08 \\\hline 510 & 6.73 \\\hline 529 & 7.02 \\\hline 460 & 6.12 \\\hline 872 & 9.52 \\\hline 650 & 7.53 \\\hline 603 & 7.25 \\\hline\end{array}$$
