Scatterplot and Correlation Coefficient

The scatter plot shows the relationship between the number of chapters and the total number of pages for several books. Use the trend line given and write an equation.

• y = 0x +10

• y= 0.1x+10

• y= 10x +0

• y= 0.1x +0

Write an equation for the given trend line

• y= 0.4x

• y= 2.5x

• y= -0.4x

• y= -2.5x
