In Exercise 15, the regression model Potassium = 38 + 27 Fiber relates fiber (in grams) and potassium content (in milligrams) in servings of breakfast cereals. Explain what the slope means.

Data From Exercise 15

For many people, breakfast cereal is an important source of fiber in their diets. Cereals also contain potassium, a mineral shown to be associated with maintaining a healthy blood pressure. An analysis of the amount of fiber (in grams) and the potassium content (in milligrams) in servings of 77 breakfast cereals produced the regression model Fiber. If your cereal provides 9 grams of fiber per serving, how much potassium does the model estimate you will get?
