A professional sports league has found that the regression model relating team wins (x) to team roster salary (y, in millions of dollars) is yˆ=1.24x+90.12.y^=1.24x+90.12. Select the proper interpretation for the y-intercept.
| When y = 0, the regression line crosses the x-axis at x = 90.12 (million). | |
| Every team with zero wins will have a roster salary of $90.12 (million). | |
| When x = 0, the regression line crosses the y-axis at y = 90.12 (million). | |
| When x = 0, the regression line crosses the y-axis at y = 1.24 (million). |
y^=1.24x+90.12
y intercept = 90.12
Every team with zero wins will have a roster salary of $90.12 (million).

3. The relationship between the number of games won by a minor league team and the number of people attending their home games is analyzed. A regression analysis to predict the attendance from the number of games won gives the model yˆ = −2200 +178x where x is the number of wins and y is the number of people attending. a) State the value of the slope of the regression line:_________. Interpret the slope with regards to the story problem...

All teams have a goal to make the postseason playoffs. A
basketball team thinks that it can make the playoffs next year if
it wins 10 more games. How much should the basketball team increase
its payroll if it wants to make the playoffs next year?
Note: Use 2 decimal places. Your answer should
be in units of $1 million; do NOT include a dollar sign in the
answer; for example, if a team should increase its payroll by
$5,250,000,...
