People at a mall were surveyed about the average number of text messages sent per day. The results are shown on the graph. Describe what the slope means in terms of the situation. Explain what the y-intercept means in terms of the situation. Is this feasible? Explain why or why not. Explain how the slope of the line would change if a 40 year old that sent 0 text messages was included in the study. In general, what would the new slope mean in terms of the situation?

The slope gives information of how the number of messages sent changes as the age increases, and the y-intercept is not feasible.

What does the slope mean?

We can see that the line has a negative slope, in the given experiment, the slope would say how the number of text messages sent per day changes.

So, as the age increases, the number of text messages sent per day decreases.

What does the y-intercept mean?

The y-intercept would give information about the number of text messages that someone with 0 years sends per day, obviously, this is not feasible.

Finally, if we add the point (40, 0), the slope would decrease a little bit. (take in mind that (40, 0) would be an outlier from the given set).
