Question

What is the slope of the line of best-fit in the scatterplot below?

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C is correct

7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for slope is given by':

$\text{Slope} = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$              ....[1]

As per the statement:

The graph shows the best fit line scatter-plot.

Consider two points i.e

(3,12) and (6, 19)

Substitute these points in [1] we have;

$\text{Slope} = \frac{19-12}{6-3}$

⇒$\text{Slope} = \frac{7}{3}$

Therefore, the slope of the line of best-fit in the scatter plot is, 7/3

Answer 2

Slope = (19-12)/(6-3) = 7/3

answer
7/3
