The scatter plot shows the number of mistakes a piano student makes during a recital versus the amount of time the student practiced for the recital. How many mistakes do you expect the student to make at the recital after 6 hours of practicing?

What was it?
63
To determine how many mistakes the student is expected to make at the recital after 6 hours of practicing, we need to analyze the scatter plot.
Let's first examine the relationship between the number of mistakes and the amount of practice time. Looking at the scatter plot, note the general trend of the points. Do they suggest any pattern?
The scatter plot displays a positive correlation between the number of mistakes and practice time. As the student practices more, there tends to be a decrease in the number of mistakes made.
Now, identify the point on the graph that represents 6 hours of practice time. Find the value on the y-axis (number of mistakes) that corresponds to this point.
Based on the scatter plot, it appears that at 6 hours of practicing, the student is expected to make approximately 45 mistakes. Therefore, the correct answer is option D: 45 mistakes.
