Answer 1

John drew the line of best fit on the scatter plot shown.

A graph is shown with scale along x axis from 0 to 10 at increments of 1 and scale along y axis from 0 to 15 at increments of 1 and scale along y axis from 0 to 15 at increments of 1. The ordered pairs 0, 3 and 1, 2 and 2, 4 and 3, 6 and 4, 6 and 5, 8 and 6, 10 and 7, 11 and 8, 12 and 9, 12 and 10, 14 are shown on the graph. A straight line joins the ordered pairs 0, 2 and 10, 14.

What is the equation of this line of best fit in slope-intercept form?

y = 2x + 6 over 5
y = 5 over 6x + 2
y = 2x + 5 over 6
y = 6 over 5x + 2
