Answer 1

Part A: In your own words, describe the relationship between the temperature of the city and the number of popsicles sold. (2 points)
Part B: Describe how you can make the line of best fit. Write the approximate slope and y-intercept of the line of best fit. Show your work. (3 points)

Answer 2

@jackmullen55

Answer 3

as the temp increased so did the number of popsicles sold

Answer 4

A: The hotter the city the more popsicles sole (do this in your own words love)

Answer 5

is that A or B

Answer 6

A

Answer 7

B is really only drawing a line through the center of the points e.g.

Answer 8

to do B u pick two points that u think show how most of the points are going and then do y2-y1/x2-x1 to get the slope that u need to plot and @jackmullen55 can explain it better

Answer 9

could u guys expanie it better

Answer 10

bu tif u chose (90,20) and (40,10) you would do \[\frac{ 90-40 }{ 40-10 }\] and u get 50/30 which reduces to 5/3 and thats the slope that u would plot to find the line of best fit

Answer 11

But if**
