An agricultural scientist collected data to study the relationship between the amount of nitrogen added to a cornfield and the number of bushels of com produced. This is the regression line of the data, where y is measured in bushels of corn and is measured in pounds of nitrogen
y=0.43x + 28.5
What is the meaning of the slope of the regression line?
O A For every 0.43 pounds of nitrogen added to the field, the amount of corn yielded increases by 28.5 bushels.
OB. For every 1 pound of nitrogen added to the field, the amount of corn yielded increases by 0.43 bushels
OC. For every 1 pound of nitrogen added to the field, the amount of corn yielded increases by 28.5 bushels
OD. For every 28.5 pounds of nitrogen added to the field, the amount of com yielded increases by 0.43 bushels.
