A few weeks ago, Connie sold 120 cups of hot chocolate. Based on the line of best fit, what was the average temperature that day?

• 37 F

• 0 F

• 53 F

• 29 F

Use this data to write the equation of the line of best fit in slope-intercept form

Use the line of best fit to predict a value for y if the value of x is 18.

Connie sells hot chocolate at a stand in a park. She records the number of cups of hot chocolate she sells, as well as the average daily low temperature. Interpret the y-intercept.

• When the temperature is -0.895 degrees, Conne will sell 178 cups.

• When the temperature is 0 degrees, Connie will sell 176 cups of hot chocolate.

• When the temperature is 49 degrees, Connie will not sell any hot chocolate.

• The y-intercept cannot be interpreted from this data.
