Question

A company studying the productivity of its employees on a new information system was interested in determining if the age (X) of data entry operators influenced the number of completed entries made per hour (Y). The regression equation is $\hat{y} = 14.374 - 0.145x$. correct interpretation of the slope is that- Select one: Oa. for each additional age of data entry operators, predicted number of completed entries made per hour increases by 0.145. Ob. for each additional age of data entry operators, predicted number of completed entries made per hour decreases by 0.145. Oc. for each additional age of data entry operators, predicted number of completed entries made per hour decreases by 14.374. Od. for each additional age of data entry operators, predicted number of completed entries made per hour increases by 14.374.
