If yearly sales of espresso machines are $10,000,000, then sales of pods will likely be less than $18,237,000. B. f the trendline is not forced through the origin, the resulting trend equation will have a less steep slope. C. If the point (13,489; 39,507) is discarded, the slope of the trendline will increase; in other words, it will be more than 1.8237. (Assume the trendline is forced throughout the origin.)  Math Statistics and Probability BUAD 5707 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
