Question

A lawn specialist measured the average temperature during different growing periods and the amount that the grass grew during each period. The scatter plotshows the results of his study. Based on this plot, which is the best prediction for the growth that would occur if the temperature were 65° F?

Answer 1

Given:

The best prediction for the growth that would occur at 65 degree F

`\begin{gathered} \text{Grass growth at 65}^(\circ)F=(14+11)/(2) \\ \text{Grass growth at 65}^(\circ)F=12.5\text{ cm} \end{gathered}`

1st option 12.5 centimeters is the final answer.
