The data reflects the time a pot of water is heating on a stove (x), paired with the temperature of the water (y).
A graph has time (minutes) on the x-axis and temperature (degrees Fahrenheit) on the y-axis. A trend line has equation y = 3.7 x + 65.
How can the y-intercept of the line be interpreted?
The initial temperature of the water is 65 degrees.
The initial temperature of the water is 3.7 degrees.
The water is on the stove for a total of 65 minutes.
The water is on the stove for an average of 3.7 minutes.
