Question

the scatter plot shows the number of years of experience, x, and the hourly pay rate,y, for each of 25 cashiers in california. (a) write an approximate equation of the line of best fit for the data. It doesn't have to be the exact line of best fit.(b) using your equation from part (a),predict the hourly pay rate for a cashier with 14 years of experience. Note you can use the graphing tools to help you approximate the line.(a) write an approximate equation of the line of the best fit. y=b using your equation from part (a), predict the hourly pay rate for a cashier with 14 years os experience.

Answer 1

step 1

Draw the line of best fit for the data

see the attached figure

please wait to draw the line

step 2

write an approximate equation of the line of best fit for the data

we take two points
