The chart below tracts starting salaries for health care workers since the year 2000. Find the least squares regression equation.

• yhat = 27541.812 + 839.721x

• yhat = -839.721 + 27541.812x

• yhat = 839.721 + 27541.812x

• yhat = -27541.812 + 839.721x

Some data were collected on the weight of a male white laboratory rat for the first 25 weeks after its birth. The linear regression equation is:

Weight = 100 + 40(Time).

Which is the best description of the slope for this regression equation in context of the problem?

• The slope of the line of regression is the time since birth of the rat. It demonstrates the predicted weight of a laboratory rate after so many weeks since birth.

• The slope is 40 grams/week which means the mouse gains about 40 grams per week after birth.

• The slope is 40 and it means for every increase in weeks the graph will increase.

• The slope is 40, which tells us the line increases.
