Question

A researcher studied the relationship between the numbers of times a certain species of cricket will chirp in one minute and the temperature outside her data is expressed in the scatter plot and line of best fit below what does the point 118, 84. 1 represent​

Answer 1

• The expected change in temperature in degree Fahrenheit for each additional cricket chirp in one minute.

We have given the relationship between the number of times a certain species of cricket will chirp in one minute and the temperature outside.

Here, we see that the best fit is a linear regression.

On the y-axis temperature in degree Fahrenheit is labeled and on the x-axis chirps per minute is labeled.

Since the slope = Rate of change of y/ Rate of change of x

So, the slope of the line represents the expected change in temperature in degree Fahrenheit for each additional cricket chirp in one minute.
