Question

Hello, my younger sister is stuck on this and I just got on here to ask this question. I have my original account but I just made a new one for no particular reason. She uses a program called Edgenuity and this is a lab report about some kind of motion lab that includes graphs and toy cars, racetracks, etc. But anyways, it would help my sister if you could answer, explain, and do anything you know about this, and she wants to know what "trends" mean. If you use Edgenuity and you were/are in the 6th grade or over, and if you have went through this before, it would be great if you could take the time to answer this: If you constructed graphs, what trends do they indicate in your data?
Yes this is funny and I wrote like a whole paragraph just to say this question, but please answer it anyways.

Answer:

Hi there!

I'm sorry your sister is struggling!

I am an edgenuity student in grade 11, I could probably help!

A trend is a line on a graph that all points seem to follow. This is best explained when thinking about line of best fit. If all your points go upward each time and are closed together, we can find the line that gets closest to each point!

Think of a trend as a pattern. The line of best fit, created by analyzing the trends, helps us guess at what the data points beyond what we have will equal

Is there any clarification she needs?
