Predict Change in Line When Slope or Y-Intercept Changes

Consider the data shown on the graph. What does the slope and y-intercept of the graph represent?

• The slope represents the price per golf game $5.22, and the y-intercept represents average time it takes to play golf, 118.1 minutes

• the slope represents the gain in points per week, 118.09, and the y-intercept represetnts the beginning score of -5.22

• the slope represents an increase of 118.1 points in golf score per hour spent practicing each week, and the y-intercept -5.22 represents the starting golf score with no practice

• the slope represents a decrease of 5.22 points in golf score per hour spent practicing each week, and the y-intercept 118.1 represents the starting golf score with no practice
