Question

A scatter plot is graphed on the coordinate grid shown below. Which equation best describes a line of best fit for the data?

Answer 1

equation b: y= -.8x + 8

Answer 2

B. y = -0.8x + 8

Explanation:

This is the answer because the slope of the line of best fit would be negative (-0.8x), but we do know that the line would pass through the y-axis at positive 8.
