The linear regression equation for the data is  y = 1.5x + 12.  Interpret the slope of the equation.

• The slope is (0, 1.5).  It means that a pizza with 0 toppings will cost $1.50.
• The slope is 1.5.  It means that it costs $1.50 per topping.
• There are 1.5 toppings.
• There are 1.5 pizzas.

The equation y = -2x + 7 models the amount of gas remaining in a lawnmower after x hours of use since it was filled. What is the meaning of the slope?

• For each hour of mowing, the mower is predicted to use 2 gallons.

• the predicted amount of gas the lawnmower can hold is 2 gallons

• For every two hours of mowing, the mower is predicted to use 7 gallons.

• The predicted amount of gas remaining after 1 hour is 2 gallons.
