Week 3 MyOpenMath Assignment - Linear Regression & Correlation & Discrete Probability Distributions Score: 6/14 6/14 answered Elli/5'05 0 Question 11 v You are researching the growth of a species of fish. You gather a sample of fish and record the age in weeks of each fish and its mass in grams. The data is displayed on the grid below with the blue points. 4 8 12 16 32 36 40 44 250 100 350 600 700 850 850 1250 Age of fish (weeks) Mass of fish (g) You construct a linear model for the data, and your equation is y = 22.4533 + 79.86 where y is the mass in grams of the fish and w is the age in weeks. a) Use the equation to identify the slope of the linear model. :1 In the context of this problem what does the slope represent?
