The scatter plot below shows the number of books read by students in Mrs. Hall’s English class and their final grades. Which statement represents the best description about the line of best fit?

The more books students read, the higher their English grade.

The more books students read, the lower their English grade.

The fewer books students read, the higher their English grade.

No relationship exists between the number of books students read and their English grades.

The slope of the trend line is − 5 7 \frac{-5}{7} 7 − 5 What does that mean?

lose 5 hours of sleep for 7 cups of coffee

gain 5 hour of sleep for 7 cups of coffee

lose 7 cups of coffee for 5 hours of sleep

lose 5 cups of coffee for 7 hours of sleep

gain 7 cups of coffee for every 5 hours of sleep

Which of the following could be the equation of the trend line for this graph?

y = − 3 x + 12 y=-3x+12 y = − 3 x + 1 2

y = 10 x − 15 y=10x\ -\ 15 y = 1 0 x − 1 5

y = 1 2 x + 11 y=\frac{1}{2}x+11 y = 2 1 x + 1 1

y = − 4 3 x y=-\frac{4}{3}x y = − 3 4 x

There is no trend line because there is no association

Which equation could be a trend line for this graph?

y = − 2 x + 5 y=-2x+5 y = − 2 x + 5

There is no trend line because there is no association

What is the slope of this trend line?

− 10 3 -\frac{10}{3} − 3 1 0

− 70 3 \frac{-70}{3} 3 − 7 0
