. c. The slope,., is the change in the cost (in thousands of dollars per thousand miles) of a local car of the same model, make, and year, and the y-intercept, 19.7, is the predicated selling price (in thousands of dollars) for a local car of the same model, make, and year with a mileage of.. a. 8 6 4 1 1 4,,, 1, 1 1 There is relatively no correlation in either scatter plot. b. No; because you cannot find a line of best fit for either correlation, you cannot use the mallard duck population to predict the total duck population.
