Scientists measured the annual forest loss (in square kilometers) in Indonesia from 2000–2012. They found the regression line



forest loss=7500+(1021×years since 2000)forest loss=


for predicting forest loss in square kilometers from years since 2000.



(a) What is the slope of this line? (Enter your answer rounded to a whole number.)





slope=


















Select the statement that describes in words what the numerical value of the slope tells you.


For each year since 2000, forest loss averages about 1021 km2.1021 km2.



For each year since 2000, forest loss averages about 750012km2.750012km2.



For each year since 2000, forest loss averages about 102112km2.102112km2.



For each year since 2000, forest loss averages about 7500 km2.7500 km2.





(b) If we measured forest loss in square meters per year, what would the slope be? Note that there are 106 square meters in a square kilometer. (Enter your answer rounded to a whole number.)





slope=slope=

















(c) If we measured forest loss in thousands of square kilometers per year, what would the slope be? (Enter your answer rounded to three decimal places.)





slope=
