The following linear equation represents the line of best fit for the following scatter plot y=0.15x-1.5

Use the equation to answer the following questions. Predict the number of hits a person would have to do to get 30 home runs.

A) 3
B) 210
C) 190
D) 6

210 hits

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

y = home runs

x = hits

[Best Line of Fit] y = 0.15x - 1.5

We can use this to predict the average of the scatter plot.

home runs = y = 30

Step 2: Solve for x hits

Remember that this is a prediction. According to the best line of fit, we would need 210 hits to get 30 home runs.

c

step-by-step explanation:

it isn't d, because the interquartile range is from 27-57. and the interquartile range is basically half the data, it's pretty obvious.

it isn't b, because like i said earlier, the interquartile range is from 27-57. 57-27 is 30. the real range has to be longer

not a either. although it looks like it, 3/4 of the data is not greater than 27. but if c is wrong than this should be correct

the correct answer is c, because 13 is the point in which the plot starts
