Build the whole regression line from summaries, then predict

A study relates weekly advertising spend (xx) to units sold (yy). You never see the raw data, only these five summaries:

xˉ=50,yˉ=140,sx=10,sy=30,r=0.8.\bar{x} = 50, \quad \bar{y} = 140, \quad s_x = 10, \quad s_y = 30, \quad r = 0.8.

Using only these, predict the units sold when spend is x=60x = 60.
