The training manager of a company that assembles and exports pool pumps wants to know if there is a link between the number of hours spent by assembly workers in training and their productivity on the job. A random sample of 10 assembly workers was selected and their performances evaluated. Use the information below to calculate the slope of the regression equation (rounded off to four decimals).
