Sylvia and Patrick plotted the information they gathered on the weight of cars and the mileage they get. Then they each drew a line on the graph that they felt best fit the data,
Sylvia's line blank
a line of best fit because her line blank .
Patrick's line blank
a line of best fit blank
as his line blank.

The correct options are;

a) Is

b) Passes through the middle of the plotted scatter data points on the graph

b) Is not

e Does not pass through the middle of the plotted scatter data points on the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Whereby the graph with the line of best fit on the left was drawn by Sylvia and the graph with the line of best fit on the right was drawn by Patrick, we have;

The line of best fit is a line that gives the relationship of the data points within a graph to each other, such that the line of best fit provides an approximation of the data on a graph

The line of best fit is the line that passes through the mid region of all the scatter points within a graph, and closeness of the data points on the scatter plot to the line of best fit, the higher the level of correlation between the line of best fit and the data.

Therefore, we have;

Sylva's line is a line of best fit because her line passes through the middle of the plotted scatter data points on the graph. Patrick's line is not a line of best fit as his line does not pass through the middle of the plotted scatter data points on the graph.

Sylvia’s line  is  a line of best fit because her line  is close to most of the data points . Patrick’s line  is not  a line of best fit as his line  is not close enough to all the data points .
