Use the data provided on Canvas. In automotive assembly processes, automation cannot always guarantee the dimensional accuracy of a car assembly as required by the design specification. Thus, some skillful workers will visually inspect those assembled car bodies and conduct manual adjustments when necessary. These workers are called "Fitter" in the automotive industry. This scenario is illustrated in the following
b) Plot a scatterplot with coastal ocean surface temperature (horizontal axis) and costal air
temperature (vertical axis). Interpret the output.

These strips are designed to filter out sediment, organic material, nutrients, and chemicals carried in runoff water. The figure [SEE PHOTO A] below shows a cross-sectional view of a grass buffer strip that has been planted along the side of a stream. A study in Nebraska investigated the use of buffer strips of several widths between 5 feet and 15 feet. The study results indicated a linear relationship between the width of the grass strip (x), in feet, and the amount of nitrogen removed from the runoff water (y), in parts per hundred. The following model was estimated. yˆ = 33.8 + 3.6x (a) Interpret the slope of the regression line in the context of this question.
