Question

The scatter plot below shows the relationship between the length (x) in meters and mass f(x) in kg of a marine animal

Answer 1

F(x) = -9 + 10.3x probably.
It's definitely not the first or last option as they have negative gradients (i.e. negative x-coefficient) and so represent a negative correlation. The data given tells us there is a positive gradient and so a positive correlation.
It could be the second option as the second and third are not so vastly different but I would go for the third because it appears to most closely fit the data pattern.

Answer 2

Answer:

F(x)=-9+10.3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(1,0)

(2,10)

(3,20)

(4,30)

(5,40)

(6,50)

(7,65)

(8,70)

(9,80)

(10,90)

F(x)=9-10.3x and F(x)=10.3-9x cannot be the function of given scatter plot since the slope in these functions are negative

So, The equation of line can be F(x)=-10.3+9x or F(x)=-9+10.3x

Refer the attached figure.

Using desmos calculator

We conclude that the function is best represented by the scatter plot is $F(x)=-9+10.3x$
