Are they are good strategies? Explain. a) Laura draws her line using the first point (farthest to the left) and the last point (farthest to the right) in the scatter plot. b) Phil makes sure there is same number of points above and below the line. c) Sadie draws a line that has the most points right on it. d) Marc draws his line as close to as many points as possible. Time Playing (hours) Sleep Time (hours) The scatter plot shows the number of hours per week students spend playing a video game and typical number of hours they sleep each night. a. What trend do you notice in the data? Is it linear? b. What was the fewest number of hours per week that a student who was surveyed played Fortnite? The most?

Homework: WorksheetDo Now:Consider the following general strategies students use for drawing a line of best fit. Are they are good strategies? Explain.a) Laura draws her line using the first point (farthest to the left) and the last point (farthest to the right) in the scatter plot.

b) Phil makes sure there is same number of points above and below the line.

c) Sadie draws a line that has the most points right on it. 

d) Marc draws his line as close to as many points as possible.  

 Time Playing (hours)

  Sleep Time (hours)

The scatter plot shows the number of hours per week students spend playing a video game and the typical number of hours they sleep each night. 

a. What trend do you notice in the data? Is it linear? 

b. What was the fewest number of hours per week that a student who was surveyed played Fortnite? The most?

d. Draw a line of best fit. Use the line to predict number of hours of sleep for someone who spends about 15 hours a week playing Fortnite.  

c. What was the fewest number of hours per night that students who were surveyed typically slept?

The table shows the number of iPhones sold in millions per year. a. Create a scatter plot using the data. Describe the relationship. 

b. Draw the line of best fit and find its equation.c. Predict how many iPhones will be sold in 2018.

A math teacher asked her students how many hours of sleep they had the night before a test. The data below shows the number of hours the student slept and their score on the exam. Plot the data in a scatter plot. Then, describe the relationship. 

b. Draw a line of best fit and find the equation of the line. 

A scientist wanted to know if there is a relationship between the temperature of a city and its latitude. Create a scatter plot using the data. a. Describe the relationship.b. Try to draw your own line of best fit and find the equation of that line.c. Based on the line of best fit, predict the latitude of a location with an average temperature of 49 degrees.
