Use the potency and temperature data below. An experiment was conducted to observe the effect of an increase in temperature on the potency of an antibiotic. Three 1-ounce portions of the antibiotic were stored for equal lengths of time at each of these temperatures: 30°, 50°, 70°, and 90°. The potency readings observed at each temperature of the experimental period are listed here:
Potency Readings, y 38, 43, 29 32, 26, 33 19, 27, 23 14, 19, 21
Temperature, x 30° 50° 70° 90°
(30, 38) (30, 43) (30, 29) (50, 32) (50, 26) (50,33) (70, 19) (70, 27) (70,23) (90,14) (90,19) (90,21)
Within the sample data, is a one-degree increase in storage temperature of antibiotics associated with a decrease in potency? If so, how much?
