Scatterplot Equations Applications

Create a scatterplot from this data. Write the line of best fit for the data.

• y = 5.02x + 1.82

• y = 8x - 15

• y = 1.82x +5.02

• y = -1.82x +5.02

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 chapters would be in a book with 180 pages. 

• 12 chapters

• 15 chapters

• 18 chapters

• 21 chapters

Which with is the line of best fit?

• Black

• Orange
