Question

FAN AND MEDAL!

Answer 1

Naomi plotted the graph below to show the relationship between the temperature of her city and the number of popsicles she sold daily:

A scatter plot is shown with the title Naomis Popsicle Stand. The x axis is labeled High Temperature, and the y-axis is labeled Number of Popsicles Sold. Data points are located at 90 and 20, 85 and 17, 70 and 14, 75 and 20, 60 and 16, 50 and 14, 60 and 12, 40 and 10, 50 and 12, 80 and 8.

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

Answer 4

B is really only drawing a line through the center of the points. To do B, you pick two points that you 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.
