Question

For several months, a restaurant collects data on the number of people at a table (p) and the total bill, in dollars (d). They find that there is a positive linear association between p and d that is best modeled by the equation d=15.7p+2.0 .

What statement is true?

Answer 1

Unfortunately for this item, we are not given with the statements in which we can choose our answer or answers from. However, given that p is the number of people at a table and d is the amount to be paid in dollars, the given equation would likely reflect that the minimum bill that the hospital is losing every time no one eats at a certain table is $2.
