Question

Which expression can be simplified to find the slope of the trend line in the scatterplot?

On a graph, a trend line goes through points (2, 87) and (8, 78).
StartFraction 2 minus 8 Over 78 minus 87 EndFraction
StartFraction 78 minus 87 Over 8 minus 2 EndFraction
StartFraction 78 minus 8 Over 87 minus 2 EndFraction
StartFraction 8 minus 2 Over 78 minus 87 EndFraction

Answer 1

Answer: B is the answer to this question

Explanation:

Which expression can be simplified to find the slope of the trend line in the scatterplot?

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through points (2, 79) and (12, 24).

StartFraction 24 minus 79 Over 12 minus 2 EndFraction

StartFraction 24 + 79 Over 12 + 2 EndFraction

StartFraction 24 minus 79 Over 2 minus 12 EndFraction

StartFraction 24 minus 79 Over 12 + 2 EndFraction

Answer 2

B - StartFraction 78 minus 87 Over 8 minus 2 EndFraction

Just took the test ;)
