Question

HELP!! PLEASE!!!METALS! I am really having trouble with this. If anyone can please help me I'd appreciate it a lot. I am not sure how to do this. The data I collected for this problem is:
McDonald's Cheesburger
# of fat calories: 103
Grams of sat. fat: 6.0 g
Wendy's cheesburer
# of fat calories: 230
Grams of sat. fat: 6.0g
Culvers cheeseburger
# of fat calories: 180
Grams of sat. fat: 8.0
McD's large fries
# of fat calories: 230
Grams of sat fat: 4.5g
Culvers lrg. fries
# of fat calories 211
Grams of sat fat: 10.8g
Wendy's lrg fries
# of fat calories: 220
grams of sat. fat: 0g

Answer 1

Collect data from several fast food chains on the number of fat calories and grams of saturated fat in menu items. Record at least 12 ordered pairs of (fat calories, grams of saturated fat). Organize your data in a table.
II. Make a scatter plot of the data on graph paper. Be sure to label the axes and use an appropriate title for the graph.
III. Draw a trend line for the scatter plot. Use the following scatter plot of the ordered pairs (fat grams, total calories) as an example.
IV. Calculate the slope of the trend line. (Choose two points on the line and find vertical change over horizontal change.)


V. Using the slope and y-intercept, write the equation of the trend line ( y = mx + b).
VI. Choose a "calories from fat" value that is not in your collected data set and that is at least 10 fat calories away from any collected value. Use the equation calculated in step V to predict the number of fat grams in an item having that number of fat calories. Be sure to show your work.
VII. Search for an item in a fast food menu having the same number of fat calories as the one you chose above. (If you cannot find the exact value, get as close as you can.) Compare the calculated value from step VI to this actual value. Explain why (or why not) you would have expected your prediction (calculated value) to be close to the actual value.
Thank you very much

well dang

Answer 10

tell me your main problem with this question so i know how to help you

Answer 11

numbers 1 through 3

Answer 12

You are asked to determine whether there's a relationship between two variables: the number of calories coming from FAT and the number of calories coming from SATURATED FAT. One way to explain what you're doing here is to say you're trying to determine how the number of FAT calories AFFECTS or LEADS to the number of calories coming from SAT. FAT. Another is to explain that the number of FAT calories is the independent (causal) variable and the number of SAT. FAT cals. is the dependent variable.:

Record at least 12 ordered pairs of (fat calories, grams of saturated fat). Organize your data in a table.

Answer 13

ok i understand so far

Answer 14

McDonald's Cheesburger
# of fat calories: 103
Grams of sat. fat: 6.0 g

Wendy's cheesburer

Grams of sat. fat: 6.0g

Culvers cheeseburger
# of fat calories: 180
Grams of sat. fat: 8.0

McD's large fries
# of fat calories: 230
Grams of sat fat: 4.5g

Culvers lrg. fries
# of fat calories 211
Grams of sat fat: 10.8g

Wendy's lrg fries
# of fat calories: 220
grams of sat. fat: 0g

Answer 15

how would i put that in a table?

Answer 16

You've already got a table. Your table would be a bit easier to read if you'd organize the data into columns:

Answer 17

ohhhh ok! SO MUCH BETTER

Answer 18

II. Make a scatter plot of the data on graph paper. Be sure to label the axes and use an appropriate title for the graph. Carefully label both axes with apprpriate scale divisions.
Your vertical axis could be subdivided as follows: 0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 calories, and your horiz. axis as follows: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 calories.

Then, plot your data. If you like, do it in Draw; otherwise do it on paper and upload an image of your drawing.
