How do i identify the minimum

to identify the minimum of the table try looking at the negative numbers first and then look at the positive numbers

step-by-step explanation:

we see from the table that for increase of 10 units in x, there is an increase of 80 units in y

hence slope of line is 8

when x=0, y =120 that is c =120

hence regression line has equation

y = 8x+120

since all points lie on the regression line, the linear relationship is perfect and hence correlation is strong.

so correlation is +1 since there is a positive increase in y.

parta:   yes,   there is a perfect linear positive strong correlation between the number of employees in the plant and the number of products produced monthly

(the slope is positive 8)

part b:   y = 8x+120

part c:   slope indicates the rate of change of y for a unit change in x.

y intercept is the y value for x=0
