Answer:

2.0

Step-by-step explanation:

x = age

y = average systolic blood pressure

x₁ = 40 years old, y₁ = 110 systolic blood pressure

x₂ = 50 years old, y₂ = 130 systolic blood pressure

\text{Slope of a line}=m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\Rightarrow m= \frac{130-110}{50-40}\\\Rightarrow\frac{20}{10}\\\Rightarrow m= 2.0

∴ Slope of the regression line is 2.0
