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

• It means that a pizza with 0 toppings will cost $1.50.

• It means that the price of the pizza increases by $1.50 for each additional topping.

• It means that a pizza with 0 toppings will cost $12.00.

• It means that the cost of the pizza increases by $12.00 for each additional topping.

The table shown is comparing a person's foot length to their height in cm. Calculate the regression equation

• yhat = 25.05x + 5.57

• yhat = 5.57x + 25.05

• yhat = -5.57x + 25.05

• yhat = 5.57x - 25.05

The chart below tracts starting salaries for health care workers since the year 2000. Using linear regression, find the equation of best fit. Round decimals to 3 places.

• yhat = 27541.812 + 839.721x 

• yhat = -839.721 + 27541.812x

• yhat = 839.721 + 27541.812x

• yhat = -27541.812 + 839.721x
