A statement which does not describe a characteristic of the line of best fit for a scatter plot is that: A. the line of best fit should be the average of all the data points.

<h3>What is a scatter plot?</h3>

A scatter plot can be defined as a type of graph which is used for the graphical representation of the values of two variables, with the resulting points showing any association (correlation) between the data set.

<h3>What is a line of best fit?</h3>

A line of best fit is also referred to as a trend line and it can be defined as a statistical (analytical) tool that is used in conjunction with a scatter plot, in order to determine whether or not there's any correlation between a data.

<h3>The characteristics of a line of best fit.</h3>

The statements which describe a characteristic of the line of best fit for a scatter plot include the following:

  • The line should be as close to the points as possible.
  • The number of points above the line should be equal to the number of points below the line.
  • The distance between the points above the line and the line should be relatively equal to the distance between the points below the line and the line.

Find slope of both

#1

  • (11,2)
  • (22,4)

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow m=\dfrac{4-2}{22-11}=\dfrac{2}{11}=1.8

#2

  • (0,0)
  • (5,1)

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow m=\dfrac{1-0}{5-0}=\dfrac{1}{5}=0.2

The function h(t) = -16t^2 + 16t represents the height (in feet) of a horse (t) seconds after it jumps during a steeplechase.
Vladimir79 [104]
A.) To find the maximum height, we can take the derivative of h(t). This will give us the rate at which the horse jumps (velocity) at time t.

h'(t) = -32t + 16

When the horse reaches its maximum height, its position on h(t) will be at the top of the parabola. The slope at this point will be zero because the line tangent to the peak of a parabola is a horizontal line. By setting h'(t) equal to 0, we can find the critical numbers which will be the maximum and minimum t values.

-32t + 16 = 0

-32t = -16

t = 0.5 seconds

b.) To find out if the horse can clear a fence that is 3.5 feet tall, we can plug 0.5 in for t in h(t) and solve for the maximum height.

h(0.5) = -16(0.5)^2 + 16(-0.5) = 4 feet

If 4 is the maximum height the horse can jump, then yes, it can clear a 3.5 foot tall fence.

c.) We know that the horse is in the air whenever h(t) is greater than 0. 

-16t^2 + 16t = 0

-16t(t-1)=0

t = 0 and 1

So if the horse is on the ground at t = 0 and t = 1, then we know it was in the air for 1 second.
