Scatter Plots, Trend Lines, and Two Way Table Review

The scatter plot shows the relationship between the number of chapters and the total number of pages for several books.  Use the trend line to predict how many chapters would be in a book with 180 pages. 

• 12 chapters

• 15 chapters

• 18 chapters

• 21 chapters

How do you determine the line of best fit in a scatter plot?

• By drawing a line that passes through all the points.

• By drawing a line that splits the data points as evenly as possible.

• By calculating the mean of the x and y values.

• By identifying the median value of the dataset.
