Which type of regression model does the scatter plot appear to show?

• linear

• exponential

• quadratic

The linear regression equation is y = 61.93x - 1.79.  According to the model, the slope can be interpreted as:

• After 0 hours of driving, they went 61.93 miles.

• They drove at a speed of 61.93 miles per hour.

• They drove 61.93 miles total.

• They drove 61.93 hours total.

Determine the curve of best fit. Hint: view the scatter plot and check correlation coefficients to determine which is the best fit.

• y = -2.7x + 7.4

• y = 0.95x² - 2.08x - 0.75

• y = -.05x - 3.26

• y = 0.95x² + 2.08x + 0.75

Find the quadratic equation for the relationship of the horizontal distance and the height of the ball.

• y= -18x² + 2.11x + 4.21

• y= -.06x² +1.06x + 7.9

• y= -6x² +1.06x + 79

• y= -.12x² + 2.11x + 4.22
