Jay collects eggs in a basket and weighs the basket. he graphed the relationship between the number of eggs
and the total mass (in grams).
total mass (g)
1
7
2 3 4 5 6
number of eggs
what does the slope represent in this context?

I don't really understand the numbers that you presented, but ill try to answer the question.

Jay is taking data on the weight of a basket with eggs depending on the number of eggs that is in the basket.

So for 1 egg, he knows that the basket weights w1

for 2 eggs he knows that the basket weights w2

and so on.

Then, in this context, if he does a linear relation of:

Weight = number of egs*k + b

where k is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

k represents the average weight of one egg, and b is the initial weight of the basket.

neither accurate nor precise.

the minimum amperage that the current in this wire would have to have so that its weight is completely supported by the magnetic force due to earth's field, assuming that no other forces except gravity act on it
