We can assume that this growth rate can be expressed as y = mx + b as long as the slope is constant, because a quadratic or exponential formula wouldn't make much sense in this situation. If it is growing at least 2 inches a month, the slope (m) will be 2. As x (month) increases by 1 month, y (plant's height) increases by 2 inches. You could make it more, but as long as you plot the points in such a way that the slope for these points are 2 or higher, you will get the answer correct. If you have any other questions or need to clarify more about what you wanted let me know and I'll help.
Answer:
Hello your question has a disjointed equation attached to it and it is also incomplete attached below is the correct and complete question
A teacher believes that the third homework assignment is a key predictor in how well students will do on the midterm. Let x represent the third homework score and y the midterm exam score. A random sample of last terms students were selected and their grades are shown below
answer :
y-intercept = 25.9047
slope = 2.8420
Step-by-step explanation:
Determine the slope for the regression equation and y intercept
The regression equation ( gotten using excel ; attached below is the excel sample on how the equation was gotten )
y = 25.9047 + 2.8420x
from the equation gotten above
y-intercept = 25.9047
slope = 2.8420
