We have a scatter plot.

We have to find the closest value to y on the line of best fit when x = 9.

We can estimate a line of best fit by hand in the graph as:

Although we have a data point where x = 9 and y =9, the line of best fit is kind of in between the two groups of points.

When we draw the line like this, the estimated value from the line of best fit when x = 9 is y = 12, as we can see in the graph.

Answer: 12
