Question

Data were gathered and displayed on a scatter plot.

A scatter plot contains the ordered pairs 0,0.5 and 2,2 and 2.5,3.5 and 4,2.5 and 4,4.5 and 5,7 and 5.5,5 and 6,6 and 6,11 and 6.5,8 and 6.5,14 and 7,9 and 7.5,11 and 8,13 and 8,15.

Which of the following is the most appropriate equation to model the data?

ŷ = 1.002x + 1.403
ŷ = 1.403x + 1.002
ŷ = 1.002(1.403)x
ŷ = 1.403(1.002)x

Answer 2

To find the most appropriate equation to model the data, we typically use linear regression to determine the equation of the line that best fits the data points. Linear regression aims to find the equation of a line that minimizes the distance between the observed data points and the fitted line.
