Anika is on to set up rides for the state fair. The crew does most of the setup on the day that the fair arrives at the fairground and then continues to work on finishing the setup for about a week to have the rides ready to go in time for the opening of the fair. The scatter plot shows Anika’s setup time on different days and the linear model for the data.
(a) What is the equation of the line, written in slope-intercept form? Show how you determined the equation?
(b) Approximately how much did Anika’s setup time decrease per day?
