Answer:
y > 6x -100
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope intercept equation of the line is
y=mx+b
m is the slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) so between the y-intercept (0,-100) and the given point (25, 50) we have m= -100-50/0-25 = -150/-25 = 6
y= 6x -100
now we have to figure the inequqlity part so take point (0, 0) that belongs to the solution and substitute in the equation
0 = 6*0 -100
0 = -100 for the equation to be true we have to make it 0 > -100, we also need to make it NOT greater or equal then because the line is doted not solid so the inequality is
y > 6x -100
Answer:
-16
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been provided a diagram which tells us that Patti drew vertical line segments from two points to the line in her scatter plot. The first point she selected was dwarf crocodile. The second point she selected was for an Indian Gharial crocodile.
We can see that dwarf crocodile's bite force is closer to line of best fit than Indian Gharial crocodile. Indian Gharial crocodile seems to be an outlier for our data set.
Therefore, Patti's line have resulted in a predicted bite force that was closer to actual bite force for the dwarf crocodile.
