Devin creates a table showing five points. He uses a calculator to calculate the slope and y-intercept of the least squares regression line based on the points in the table. What is the slope of this line?(1 point)

Answer 1

2

All points lie exactly on the line y = 2x + 12, so the least squares regression slope is 2.
