Part Two: Representation of Data with Plots
Using graphing software of your choice, create a scatter plot of your data. Predict the line of best fit, and sketch it on your graph.
Copy and paste your scatter plot into a word processing document.
Residual = Observed Value − Predicted Value
Part Three: The Line of Best Fit
Which variable did you plot on the x-axis, and which variable did you plot on the y-axis? Explain why you assigned the variables in that way.
I plotted height on the x-axis because it is the independent variable and the arm span on the y-axis because it’s the dependent variable. The arm span will be based on the height, therefore the arm span should be plotted on the y-axis.
Write the equation of the line of best fit using the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b. Show all your work, including the points used to determine the slope and how the equation was determined.
Y = x + -21.5
(39, 37), (47, 49)
M = 37 - 49 / 39 - 47
=
-12/-8
M = 1.5, point (39, 37)
37 = (1.5)(39) + b
37 = 58.5 + b
B = -21.5
Y = x + -21.5
What does the slope of the line represent within the context of your graph? What does the y-intercept represent?
The y-intercept represents the arm span of the people that are being measured. The slope is by how much is the height being increased.
Test the residuals of two other points to determine how well the line of best fit models the data.
Ŷ = 2.0833+0.9167X
Use the line of best fit to help you to describe the data correlation.
The data correlation is a strong positive correlation.
Using the line of best fit that you found in Part Three, Question 2, approximate how tall is a person whose arm span is 66 inches?
Around 65 inches
According to your line of best fit, what is the arm span of a 74-inch-tall person?
Around 71
