    D. $2940

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The given regression model is

    Income=2.4+0.06 x education.

    The predicted income of person with 9 years of education can be computed by replacing education year with 9 in the regression model

    Income=2.4+0.06*9

    Income=2.4+0.54

    Income=2.94

    As the income is measured in thousands of US $ so,

    Income=2.94*1000 $

    Income=$2940.

    Thus, the predicted income of person with 9 years of education is $2940.
