Ted researched the price of airline tickets and discovered a correlation between the price of a ticket and the number of miles traveled. After recording his data on a scatter plot, he determined the equation for the line of best fit is y = 300 + 0.45x. How can you tell from the equation that the correlation between the cost of a plane ticket and the number of miles traveled is positive? What does a positive correlation tell you about the dependent and independent variables?

Respuesta :

D) the expected change in price of the ticket for each mile traveled
.45 represents a positive slope... if you are using usatestprep it should be D
