Aclothing store experimented with the price of blue jeans to see if the price affects the number of pairs sold. the results are shown in the table. what is the approximate slope of the line of best fit given by a regression calculator? price ($), x 18 23 25 29 30 33 pairs sold, y 16 13 10 8 6 2

answer: 33 ( approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, in the linear regression formula, the slope is the a in the equation y = b + ax ( by comparing it with the general equation of line y = mx + c )

where,

here given table is,

price ($), x   :           18         23       25       29       30       33

pairs sold, y :         16         13         10       8         6       2

so, ,   ,   ,

and   ,

thus, slop of the given line is,

⇒  

⇒   ≈ 33

0.85% : )
