A. The estimated mean number of students per classroom in 2004

B. The estimated mean number of students per classroom in 2014

C. The estimated yearly decrease in the mean number of students per classroom

D. The estimated yearly increase in the mean number of students per classroom

Content: Heart of Algebra

Key: D

Objective: You must interpret the slope of an equation in relation to the real-

world situation it models. Also, when the models are created from data, you

must recognize that these models only estimate the independent variable, y,

for a given value of x.

Explanation: Choice D is correct. When an equation is written in the

form y = mx + b, the coefficient of the x-term (in this case 0.8636) is the slope.

The slope of this linear equation gives the amount that the mean number of

students per classroom (represented by y) changes per year (represented by x).
