Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We want a line of best fit, which means we want to create a line that the data points will lie closest to.
One thing we can do is find the slope between the bottom-leftmost point and the top-rightmost point. This is because if we were to draw a line connecting these two, it will cut through the data quite well.
Those two points are (9, 15) and (16, 18), so the slope is change in y divided by the change in x:
(18 - 15) ÷ (16 - 9) = 3 ÷ 7 ≈ 0.4
Eliminate A and B.
Now we need to determine the y-intercept. This needs no calculations; simply look at the graph: there's no way a line cutting through the y-intercept point of (0, 18) will perfectly match the data points; instead it must be a y-intercept lower than 18. So, eliminate D.
The answer is C.
The answer here is C. The sign of the factors are both positive. We can use the FOIL method as reference in determining the sign of the factors. The 3rd term C is positive; therefore our only option is either both negative or both positive. Looking the middle term, which is positive, we know that the middle term is the sum of the outer and inner in FOIL method, which means, signs of the factors must be both positive
