Question

Which of the following functions best fits the data shown in the scatterplot below? y=100x+2 / y=20x^2+10 / y=4^x+8 / y=2^x+5

Answer 1

The equation of the scatter plot is (a) y = 100x + 2

How to determine the equation of the scatterplot?

The line of best fit of the scatter plot passes through the points

(x,y) = (0,2) and (1,102)

The equation is then calculated as:

$y = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}(x - x_1) + y_1$

Substitute known values in the above equation

$y = \frac{102 -2}{2-1}(x - 0) + 2$

Evaluate the expression on the right-hand side

y = 100x + 2

Hence, the equation of the scatter plot is (a) y = 100x + 2
