PLS HELP URGENT

A scatter plot is shown on the coordinate plane.

Which of the following graphs shows a line on the scatter plot that fits the data?
data?

scatter plot with points plotted at 1 comma 3, 1 comma 4, 3 comma 3, 3 comma 4, 4 comma 4, 4 comma 6, 5 comma 7, 6 comma 7, 7 comma 9, 8 comma 8, 9 comma 10, and 10 comma 10, with a line drawn through the points 1 comma 3 and 3 comma 4

Answer 1

The correct graph that shows a line on the scatter plot that fits the data is:

scatter plot with points plotted at 1 comma 3, 1 comma 4, 3 comma 3, 3 comma 4, 4 comma 4, 4 comma 6, 5 comma 7, 6 comma 7, 7 comma 9, 8 comma 8, 9 comma 10, and 10 comma 10, with a line drawn through the points 1 comma 3 and 3 comma 4.

This line best fits the data because it passes through two of the data points that are separated horizontally and vertically, respectively, capturing the general trend of the data points and giving a good approximation of the direction and slope of a possible trend line in the data set.
