Question

PLEASE HELP. MEDAL.



A student is assessing the correlation between the number of workers in a factory and the number of units of output produced daily. The table below shows the data:


Number of workers (x)
0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90

Number of units of output (y)
2 52 102 152 202 252 302 352 402 452

Answer 1

What does the slope of the plot indicate?

Answer 2

It's direct variation...do you see the relationship?

Answer 3

It goes up by ten each time in the x and up by 50 each time in the y.

Answer 4

yes so know you can find the slope

Answer 5

or the constant

Answer 6

The slope would be 5/1 right?

Answer 7

The thing that I need though is the meaning of the slope, or what it indicates.

Answer 8

Does it mean:
Each time 10 workers are hired, 50 units are made?

Answer 9

y = mx where m = slope

Answer 10

Take any one of them for example...
