A scatter plot is made to model the number of boxes of cereal in Jason's store on different days. The data used for the scatter plot are shown in the table below. Assume that new boxes are not bought to replace the boxes sold:


Days 5 3 8 6 0 4
Number of cereal boxes sold 50 70 20 40 100 60


What does the slope of the model represent?
The price of each box of cereal
The original number of cereal boxes sold
The number of cereal boxes sold on the first day
The number of cereal boxes sold per day

Answer :

it's d)
if you divide the total number of boxes sold by the total amount of days, you get by definition, the number of boxes sold per day

Answer:

The slope of the model represent:

  •    The number of cereal boxes sold per day

Step-by-step explanation:

The table which represent the days and number of cereal boxes sold is given by:

Days                               5     3       8 6   0     4

No. of cereal boxes sold    50   70     20 40  100    60

We know that the slope of a graph is the ratio of change in dependent variable to the change in independent variable.

Here the independent variable is number of days

and the dependent variable is number of cereal boxes sold.

Hence, the slope is:

              The number of cereal boxes sold per day.

( since, by the change in number of cereal boxes to the change in number of days we may obtain the per day number of boxes sold)
