Which statement accurately describes the data's form, direction, and strength from the scatterplot below? For a set of data, x is the explanatory variable. Its mean is 8.2, and its standard deviation is 1.92. For the same set of data, y is the response variable. Its mean is 13.8, and its standard deviation is 3.03. The correlation was found to be 0.223. Select the correct slope and y-intercept for the least-squares line. Jesse takes two data points from the weight and feed cost data set to calculate a slope, or average rate of change. A hamster weighs half a pound and costs $2 per week to feed, while a Labrador Retriever weighs 62.5 pounds and costs $10 per week to feed. Using weight as the explanatory variable, what is the slope of a line between these two points? Answer choices are rounded to the nearest hundredth.
