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 line of best fit?

• f(x)= 5x+1.82

• cannot be determined

• f(x)= 1.82x + 5.02

• f(x)= 1.1x + 4.2

Chang wants to know if he is improving his skill on the cello. He created a scatter plot and drew a line of best fit. If he uses the point (2, 8) and (5, 1.5) from his line, which equation would best represent the line of best fit?

• y = -2.17x + 12.3

• y = 2.17x + 3.77

• y = -0.46x + 9

• y = -2.17x – 9.35
