Here is a scatter plot of weight vs. age for different Dobermans. The model, represented by , is graphed with the scatter plot. Here, represents age in weeks, and represents weight in pounds.
What does the slope mean in this situation?
Based on this model, how heavy would you expect a newborn Doberman to be?
