Ben collected data from a group of 12 people. He measured each person's resting heart rate and recorded the average number of hours each person exercised per week. He created a scatterplot to show the data he collected. Based on the scatterplot, what is the best prediction of the resting heart rate, in beats per minute, of a person who exercises an average of 8 hours per week?

• 30 beats per minute

• 50 beats per minute

• 58 beats per minute

• 40 beats per minute

The scatterplot shows the average number of hours each of 13 people spends at work every week and the average number of hours each of them spends on recreational activities every week.

• 34 h

• 78 h

• 55 h

• 65 h
