A manufacturing company glues one part to another part during the assembly of its final product. Either too much or too little glue presents a problem. It is important for the pressure of the glue nozzle (pounds per square inch) to be set correctly because it affects the amount of glue (ounces) that is applied. Ten applications are sampled and the following information collected: SSXX  = 129.6            SSYY = 2.345             SSXY = 16.6   X bar = 25.2     Y bar = 2.05   Interpret the estimated slope coefficient.
