The linear regression equation is y = ___

​(Type an expression using x as the variable. Use integers or decimals for any numbers in the expression. Round to the nearest thousandth as​ needed.)

The linear regression equation is y = 0.401x + 12.223

no

Apologies for the mistake.

The linear regression equation is y = 0.364x + 12.183

LAST CHANCE

Apologies for the error.

The correct linear equation is y = 0.331x + 12.335

The slope of this line indicates that the number of workers over 65 is increasing at the rate of ___​% per year.
