Question 464023
This table shows 10 observations of a pair of variables (x, y). The variables x and y are positively correlated, with a correlation coefficient of 0.977. Find the slope, b, of the least squares regression line, y = ax + b, for these data. 
x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 11
y 2 4 5 8 9 12 13 14 15 16
-------------------------
I ran a Linear Regression function against
the data and found slope = 1.6121
