A scatterplot is used to display data for a runner where x is the number of miles run, and y is the time, in minutes, that it ta

larisa [96]

The interpretation of y = 9.5x is that: (a) For each 1 minute, the runner ran 9.5 miles.

<h3>How to interpret the equation?</h3>

The equation of the line of best fit is given as:

y = 9.5x

Divide both sides by x

9.5 = y/x

From the question, we have:

x ⇒ number of miles run
y ⇒ time

This means that:

9.5 = number of miles run/time

Hence, the interpretation of y = 9.5x is that: (a) For each 1 minute, the runner ran 9.5 miles.
