Question

PLS HELP 44 pts! Meg plotted the graph below to show the relationship between the temperature of her city and the number of people at a swimming pool: (image attached below)
Line of best fit:_________________________________________________
approximate Slope: ______________________________________
Y intercept of the line of best fit.:________________________
Steps taken to solve or find the slope and intercept: ________________

Answer 1

Answer:

Okay so I am not positive but I will try to help you out. Okay so the line of best fit would positive. Because it is all going up. The approximate slope is 3/4 Because slope is change in y over change in x. The y intercept of the line of best fit would be (0,0). This is because when drawing the line you can see that it would intercept the y-axis at zero. My steps taken were basically just looking at it and peicing everything together. If you want to get more involved with slope you could pick to coordinates which I will include and do change in y over change in x.

My points I will pick are (1,1) and (5,2)

2-1/5-1=3/4

therefore approximate slope is 3/4

Like I said I am not positive but I am just trying to help out in some way.

If something is incorrect please inform me. If this helps also please inform me.
