If there is a correlation, describe it.

• as time

  increases, the number of funds decreases

• the number of years increases, the number of funds increases

• as time

  decreases, the number of funds increase

Write the slope-intercept form of an equation for the line of fit.

The line of fit shown passes through

(1993, 16) and (1999, 5.7).

• y = -1.7x + 3404

• y = -1.55x - 3093.5
• y = 1.55x + 3093.5
• y = -1.55x + 3093.5

Use (1997, 13) and (2005, 22) to find the slope.

• 8/9

• 9/8

• 9

• 8

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

Match the following vocabulary words with their definitions.

• Line of Best Fit

• The line that best represents data on a scatter plot.

• Positive Correlation

• When x increases, y decreases.

• Negative Correlation

• a cluster of data that shows a relationship between two numerical variables

• Scatter Plot

• When x increases, y increases

• No Correlation

• No trend.

  Scattered data does not show a relationship.
