Question 1085637: The relationship between antioxidant food consumption per day in cups and the BMI of an individual is modeled by the following line of best fit: y = -1.2x + 26. Interpret the slope and intercept of the trend line within the context of the data. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! if one consumes no anti-oxidants at all, the BMI would be expected to be 26. (intercept)
For every cup of anti-oxidants consumed per day, the BMI would be expected to fall 1.2 units.(slope)
