I'm not sure about the answer but you could try drawing it how it describes it. It may help you picture it better. Sorry I couldn't be any more help but that's what I would try
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.

Simple Interest Rate Formula:
- <em>P</em> is principle amount
- <em>r</em> is rate
- <em>t</em> is time (in years)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify variables</em>
<em>P</em> = 7300
<em>r</em> = 3% = 0.03
<em>t</em> = 10
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>A</u></em>
- Substitute in variables [Simple Interest Rate Formula]:
- (Parenthesis) Add:
- Evaluate exponents:
- Multiply:
2(b + 6) - 7 <= -3b - 30
Let's distribute the 2.
2b + 12 - 7 <= -3b - 30
Combine like terms.
2b + 5 <= -3b - 30
Subtract 2b from both sides and add 30 to both sides.
35 <= -5b
Divide both sides by -5.
-7 >= b
We had to flip the sign because we divided by a negative number.
This means that b <= -7. D is correct.
