The linear function f(x) = 48.8x + 63.8 models the number of smartphones sold in some country, f(x), in millions, x years after 2006. Find the slope of the model. Then describe what this means in terms of the rate of change of the dependent variable per unit change in the independent variable. The slope of the model is. (Type an integer or a decimal.)
