Question

07. Allison kept a record of the number of students in front of her in the lunch Line and the number of minutes until she sat down to eat. The data are shown in the scatterplot.

Answer 1

We can find the quations for each slope in the following way:

(-3,-1) (0,1)

`m=(1-(-1))/(0-(-3))=(2)/(3)`

1 = 2/3 (0) +b

b= 1

y = 2/3 x +1

For the second case we have:

(-2,6) and (0,0)

`m=(0-6)/(0+2)=-3`

0=-3(0)+b

b=0

y= -3x+0

And taking in count the info given the best solution is:

(-1,3)
