Name three things you learned from this youtube video:
1)It wasnt boring like most of the other videos.


2)Shows many other ways to solve the scatter plot.


3)It wasnt like most of the other videos, it showed that math can be kind of fun.



Now answer the following questions. Post a link that you used to help you research it.
1) What is a scatter plot? A scatter plot is a graph that has many dots that show a line.



2) What is a line of best fit? A line that goes through most of the dots on the graph.



3) What is a curve of best fit? When the a line that curves through the scatter plot.



4) Name 2 examples where scatter plots are used in real life: science




5) Write an equation of a best fit line for the following scatter plot: y=.401x-715.914







-At 11 units, what is a good prediction for amount of minutes?




6) Find a scatterplot problem, paste it in here and give the answer.
