Answer 2

Answer:

Option C is correct

The average number of customers per night increased by 5 each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form:

The equation of straight line is given by:

$y = mx+b$

where,

m is the slope or rate

b is the y-intercept or the initial value.

As per the statement:

The scatter plot shows the relationship between the average number of nightly customers and the number of months since a restaurant opened.

The equation represents the linear model for this data as:

$y = 5x+20$

where,

x represents the number of months and

y represents the average number of nightly customers

On comparing with [1] we have;

m = 5 and b = 20

⇒ The number 5 in the given equation represents:

The average number of customers per night increased by 5 each month.
