Question 2 • Algebra II
For the least-squares regression line, the slope is [5(13,393) − 143(411)] ÷ [5(4,573) − 143²] = 8,192 ÷ 2,416 ≈ 3.39. The intercept is the mean of y minus the slope times the mean of x: 411 ÷ 5 − 3.39(143 ÷ 5) ≈ −14.75. So the equation is y = 3.39x − 14.75, which is choice B.
