Scatterplot Finding Line of Best Fit

Which of the following lines represents the line of best fit for the scatter plot?

• A

• B

• C

• D

The scatter plot shows the relationship between the number of chapters and the total number of pages for several books. Use the trend line to predict how many pages would be in a book with 19 chapters. 

• 150 pages

• 170 pages

• 190 pages

• 210 pages

The table shown is comparing a person's foot length to their height in cm. Calculate a line of best fit.

• f(x) = 25.05x + 5.57

• f(x) = 5.57x + 25.05

• f(x) = -5.57x + 25.05

• f(x) = 5.57x - 25.05

What is the equation of the line of best fit?

• y = 3/2x

• y = 30x

• y = 30x + 300

• y = 3/2x + 300

Find the equation of the line of best fit for the given data

• y=163.41x + 4.19

• y=-163.41x + 4.19

• y=-4.19x + 163.41

• y= 4.19x - 163.41

• There is no linear correlation of the data set
