You work for a manufacturing company on a production line that manufactures cell phones. You are paid $20 a day plus $1.50 for each phone that you assemble. Interpret the slope and y-intercept of the equation of the trend line y=1.50x+20.

The slope means that, for every phone assembled, you receive $20. The y-intercept means that you receive $1.50 a day regardless of the number of phones produced.
The slope means that, for every phone assembled, you receive $20. The y -intercept means that you receive $1.50 a day regardless of the number of phones produced.

The slope means that, for every 1.50 phones assembled, you receive $1. The y-intercept means that you receive $20 a day regardless of the number of phones produced.

The correct interpretation of the slope and y-intercept of the equation \( y = 1.50x + 20 \) is:

- **Slope**: The slope of the equation is \( 1.50 \), which means that for every phone assembled (each unit increase in \( x \)), you receive an additional $1.50 in pay.

- **Y-Intercept**: The y-intercept of the equation is \( 20 \), which means that you receive $20 a day regardless of the number of phones produced (when \( x = 0 \)).

Therefore, the correct interpretation is:

**The slope means that, for every phone assembled, you receive $1.50. The y-intercept means that you receive $20 a day regardless of the number of phones produced.**
