a veterinarian collected satta on the association between age and mass of boxer puppies a line of best fit was computed the equation for the line is y=17.5x+480
where y represents the mass of the boxer puppies in grams and x represents the age of the puppies in weeks. The slope of the line is 17.5, indicating that for every additional week of age, the mass of the puppies increases by 17.5 grams. The y-intercept of the line is 480, representing the estimated mass of the puppies at birth (age = 0 weeks). This information provides valuable insights for monitoring the growth and development of boxer puppies and identifying any potential health concerns.
