At a certain company, the human resources department surveyed employee satisfaction. they collected the following data. (a)how would you characterize the relationship between salary and employee satisfaction scores? explain. (1 point) (b)hilda uses the function y = 0.0005x + 60 to model the situation. what score does the model predict for a salary of $65,000? (1 point) (c)what does the number 0.0005 in part (b) mean in the context of the situation? (1 point)

The correct answers are:

a) There is a positive correlation between salary and employee satisfaction.
b) 92.5
c) There is an increase of 0.0005 in employee satisfaction for each salary increase.

Explanation:

a) There is a positive correlation because as the salary increases, the employee satisfaction also increases.
b) Using the equation of the line of best fit, y=0.0005x+60, we sill substitute 65000 in for x:
y=0.0005(65000)+60 = 32.5+60 = 92.5.
c) 0.0005 is the slope of this equation.  Slope is rate of change of a line, and is represented as rise over run; the rise in this case is the increase in employee satisfaction and the run is the increase in salary.
