For each additional staff member available decreases wait time by about 1.62 minutes. The statement is TRUE

The statement that when the wait time is 0 minutes, 18 staff are available is FALSE

The standard equation of  a line is given as y = mx + b where:

  • m is the slope of the line
  • b is the y-intercept.

The slope is also known as the rate of change of the function.

If a line that models the data is given by the equation y=−1.62x+18;

  • mx = -1.62
  • m = -1.62

This shows that each additional staff member available decreases wait time by about 1.62 minutes. The statement is TRUE

The y-intercept is the point where the line cuts the y-axis. The y-intercept (0, 18) means that when the wait time is 18 minutes, 0 staff are available, hence the given statement is FALSE
