In recent years, fast food restaurants have been required to publish nutrition information about the foods they serve. Nutrition information about a random sample of 15 McDonald's lunch/dinner menu items (excluding sides and drinks) was obtained from their website. We wish to use the total fat content (in grams) to better understand the number of calories in the lunch/dinner menu items at McDonald's. Computer output from a regression analysis and a scatterplot (with regression line) of the data are provided.
Use two decimal places when reporting the results from any calculations, unless otherwise specified.
-What is the estimated slope in this regression model? Interpret the slope in context.
