Given information

Given that, a random sample of ten professional athletes produced the following data where x is the number of endorsements the player has and y is the amount of money made (in millions of dollars). 

Then we have to identify the slope of the line of best fit and tell what does it represent.

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

We have the equation for the line of best fit .

Then slope is 1.99. It means that for every endorsement deal a professional player gets, he gets an average of another $1.99 million in pay each year.
