Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equation 11ea9518_d692_09cf_9016_89d10b9add26_TB3450_11 = 14.2 + 0.6x represents a linear relationship where 14.2 is the y-intercept (the starting point) and 0.6 is the slope (the rate of change). This is the best choice because it is the only equation that represents a linear relationship between two variables. The other equations have different y-intercepts and/or slopes, indicating that they represent different types of relationships.

A) y^\hat{y}y^​ = 06 + 142x B) y^\hat{y}y^​ = 2 + 169x C)

A) $\hat{y}$ = 06 + 142x
