Question

A researcher studied the relationship between the number 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. Based on the line of best fit, what temperature would it most likely be outside if this same species of cricket were measured to chirp 120 times in one minute?

Answer 1

Based on the line of best fit, the estimated temperature outside when the cricket chirps 120 times in one minute would be approximately 28°C (82°F).
