Two students have examined the scatter plot shown and have created a line of best fit for the data. Student A believes that the

line of best fit for the data is y=−2x+24, while Student B believes that the line of best fit for the data is y=1.5x+23. Determine which student created a better line of best fit given the data in the graph. Justify your answer using mathematics.

Answer:

Is student B because student B data has -2 which is facing the same way the scatter plot is while student A is facing the left while the scatter plot is on the right.

Exterior Angles Theorem is used.

The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the 2 opposite interior angles.

- The spinner shown is spun 4 times. What is the probability that you will spin gray at least 2 times?​
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

26.17%

Step-by-step explanation:

P(Grey) = 1/4

P(Grey at least 2 times in 4) = 1 - P(no Grey in 4) - P(1 Grey in 4)

P(no Grey in 4) = 4C0 * 3/4 * 3/4 * 3/4 * 3/4 = 81/256

P(1 Grey in 4) = 4C1 * 1/4 * 3/4 * 3/4 * 3/4 = 27/64

P(Grey at least 2 times in 4) = 1 -  81/256 -  27/64 = (256-81-108)/256=67/256=26.17%

pshichka [43]

Answer:

Each = \frac{15}{128}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for line plot

Required

Determine the total trash picked

The data on the line plot can be represented as:

Trash \to Schools

\frac{1}{8} \to 6

\frac{1}{4} \to 8

\frac{1}{2} \to 2

1 \to 0

The total trash picked is:

Total = \frac{1}{8} * 6 + \frac{1}{4} * 8 + \frac{1}{2} * 2 + 1 * 0

Total = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{8}{4} + 1+0

Take LCM

Total = \frac{3+8+4+0}{4}

Total = \frac{15}{4}

The total picked by each school is:

Each = \frac{Total}{32}

Each = \frac{15/4}{32}

Rewrite as:

Each = \frac{15}{4*32}

Each = \frac{15}{128}
