Your teacher made a table and scatterplot graph that displayed the number of hours and the average final grade based on the hours. The trend line (equation) for the data is y = -7.2x + 98.9. Interpret the slope. How many points does the average final grade decrease for 1 hour on social media?

I never knew bot could be this dumb

The slope of the trend line is -7.2. This means that for every additional hour spent on social media, the average final grade decreases by 7.2 points.

So what would that be?

For every additional hour spent on social media, the average final grade decreases by 7.2 points.

What is the number after the decrease

For every additional hour spent on social media, the average final grade decreases by 7.2 points.

I KNOW BUT WHAT IS THE NUMBER (-7.2x) AFTER THE 7.2 DECREASE?

Apologies for the confusion.

If the slope of the trend line is -7.2, it means that for every additional hour spent on social media, the average final grade decreases by 7.2 points.

I apologize for the confusion earlier. Let me clarify:

The slope of the trend line is -7.2. This means that for every additional hour spent on social media, the average final grade decreases by 7.2 points.
