Math 8 U8 Post Assessment Review

The following scatter plot compares the number of books sold by an independent publishing company (y) over the span of 10 weeks (x). Which linear equation best models this relationship?

• y = 25x + 250

• y = 50x + 250

• y = 0.08x + 250

• y = 12.5x + 250

Which statement best describes the given scatter plot?

• The scatter plot displays a linear relationship because the line of best fit will have a positive slope.

• The scatter plot displays a positive correlation between the variables because the points show a clear pattern of relationship and a positive slope.

• The scatter plot displays a negative correlation between the variables because the points show no clear pattern of relationship.

• The scatter plot displays no correlation between the variables because the points show no clear pattern of relationship.
