The average August temperatures \( (y) \) and geographic latitudes \( (x) \) of 11 cities in the United States were studied. The regression equation for these data is Temperature \( =119.7-1.44^{*} \) ( (latitude) What is the slope of the line? Interpret the slope The latitude changes by \( 119.7 \) for every change of temperature A one degree increase of temperature is a \( 1.44 \) drop in latitude If you climb \( 119.7 \) degrees of latitude you will get an increase of one degree in temperature To get \( 119.7 \) more degrees of temperature you must dimb one degree of latitude An increase of one latitude is a 1,44 drop in temperature The temperature changes by 1,44 for every change of one latitude
