Terrence created a scatter plot to represent the total number of goals scored by each player on his soccer team in a season and the number of hours the player spent at soccer practice.
The scatter plot has 10 data points. The x-values of the data points extend from 10 to 90, and the y-values of the data points extend from 0 to 35.
Which graph shows the line of best fit for the data in Terrence's scatter plot?
A.
The scatter plot has 10 data points. The x-values of the data points extend from 10 to 90, and the y-values of the data points extend from 0 to 35. A line is line passing through the points (26, 30) and (45, 22).
B.
The scatter plot has 10 data points. The x-values of the data points extend from 10 to 90, and the y-values of the data points extend from 0 to 35. A line is line passing through the points (10, 0), (59, 26) and (70, 32).
C.
The scatter plot has 10 data points. The x-values of the data points extend from 10 to 90, and the y-values of the data points extend from 0 to 35. A line is line passing through the points (55, 26) and (59, 26).
D.
The scatter plot has 10 data points. The x-values of the data points extend from 10 to 90, and the y-values of the data points extend from 0 to 35. A line is line passing through the points (25, 16) and (55, 26).
B.
The line passing through the points (10, 0), (59, 26) and (70, 32) appears to be the best fit for the data in the scatter plot, as it captures the general trend of the data points.
