Question
Mr Jones students kept track of the hours that they studied the week previous to the test here the breakdown of the hrs studied and score x .20 6 9 18 4 5 12 y.95 45 55 90 22 30 70 .is this a positive, negative, no correlation. Find the equation of the line of best fit for data .what points are used to show the steps used to get equation. Using 2 points find the slope .once you find the slope use the point to substitute values to find b the equation should be y= mx +b. Use the equation to predict the scores for two people who studied 15 hrs and 9 hours ( hint substitute 15 in for x and 9 in for x you should have 2 answers. Was the datd correct yes or no.
