The video tutorial explains how to draw a line of best fit on a scatter plot. It emphasizes that the line should approximate the data by passing through the center, with some points above and below it. The tutorial then identifies which data points the line passes by, concluding that the correct point is 55.

What is the primary purpose of a line of best fit in a scatter plot?

• To highlight the outliers in the data

• To connect all data points directly

• To approximate the trend of the data

• To provide an exact prediction for each data point

When drawing a line of best fit, what is a key consideration?

• It should be as far from the data points as possible

• It should pass through every data point

• It should pass through the center of the data

• It should only pass through the highest data point

Which of the following is true about the line of best fit?

• It should only pass through the lowest data point

• It should be parallel to the x-axis

• It should have equal numbers of points above and below it

• It must pass through the origin

Which point does the line of best fit pass by in the given example?

• (55, 55)

• (1, 2)

• (46, 46)

• (67, 67)

Why might a line of best fit not pass through any data points?

• Because it is drawn randomly

• Because it only considers the highest data point

• Because it is an exact representation of the data

• Because it is an approximation of the data trend
