Question

The scatterplot below represents the number of hot drinks sold on a given

Answer 1

Answer:

A) y=-1/2x+55

Step-by-step explanation:

We can clearly see a negative trend/association between the number of hot drinks sold on a given  day and the low temperature of that day. Therefore, the slope of the best line of fit must be negative, eliminating D and E. Also, notice that when the low temperature is 0°F, the number of hot drinks sold is about 55, which is a good indicator of our y-intercept or constant, eliminating choice C. Because the best line of fit is not so steep, the slope will be closer to 0 if it's a negative trend. This eliminates choice B, making the correct answer A.
