system
A machine can operate at different speeds, and some of the items it produces will have defects. The number of defective items produced per hour varies with the machine's operating speed. Let $x$ represent the speed (in revolutions per second), and $y$ represent the number of defective items produced per hour. Four sets of observations for $(x, y)$ are obtained as follows: $(8, 5)$, $(12, 8)$, $(14, 9)$, and $(16, 11)$. It is known that $y$ is strongly linearly correlated with $x$. If the number of defective items produced per hour is not allowed to exceed 10 in actual production, what is the maximum speed (in revolutions per second) the machine can operate at? (Round to the nearest integer)
Reference formula:
If $(x_1, y_1), \ldots, (x_n, y_n)$ are sample points, $\hat{y} = \hat{b}x + \hat{a}$,
$\overline{x} = \frac{1}{n} \sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}x_i$, $\overline{y} = \frac{1}{n} \sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}y_i$, $\hat{b} = \frac{\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}(x_i - \overline{x})(y_i - \overline{y})}{\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}(x_i - \overline{x})^2} = \frac{\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}x_iy_i - n\overline{x}\overline{y}}{\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}x_i^2 - n\overline{x}^2}$, $\hat{a} = \overline{y} - \hat{b}\overline{x}$.
