The scatter plot below shows the relationship between inches of snow and snow shovels sold. The equation for the line of best fit is y = 0.8x + 1. What is the meaning of 0.8 in the equation?
The snow shovels sold tends to be 0.8 times the inches of snow
For each additional inch of snow, the snow shovels sold tends to increase by 0.8
The equation predicts that zero inches of snow will result in the snow shovels sold to be −0.8
For each additional inch of snow, the snow shovels sold tends to decrease by 0.8
