Choose The Linear Equation That Best Fits The Data On The Graph class=

Sagot :

We have several points in a graph and want to know what of the options is the best fit.

Due the options has very diferent slopes for the line we can solve the problem by inspection, so:

• The slope of the line must be negative, because the points data show a negative slope. ,So, the options A and B are discarded.

,

• The points show a big slope. For Option C, when x = 4, y = -7 that is near from data, for Option D, when x =4, y = -1 which is very far from data.

So the correct answer is the option C.
