Scatter Plots, Line Of Best Fit
Standard(s): 8.SP.A.2
Which of the following lines best approximates the data in the scatter plot shown above?
None of these; the data do not appear to be related linearly.
Standard: 8.SP.A.2
Domain: Statistics & Probability
Theme: Investigate patterns of association in bivariate data
Description: Know that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables. For scatter plots that suggest a linear association, informally fit a straight line, and informally assess the model fit by judging the closeness of the data points to the line.
Which of the following best describes the points in this scatter plot?
Increasing Linear
Decreasing Linear
Constant Linear
None of these
