Lines of Best Fit, Predictions and Equations

The scatter plot shows the relationship between the number of chapters and the total number of pages for several books.  Use the trend line to predict how many chapters would be in a book with 180 pages. 

• 12 chapters
• 15 chapters
• 18 chapters
• 21 chapters

The equation of the trend line is y= 1/2x +1

How many laps can a bicycle make around the park in 23 minutes? (HINT: Since minutes is our y-variable and the graph doesn't go that far up, plug 23 into the equation above. Since 23 is the y-axis, substitute y with 23 instead. Then, solve.)

• 44 laps

• 12 1/2 laps

• 23 laps
