Meg plotted the graph below to show the relationship between the temperature of her city and the number of people at a swimming pool: Part A: In your own words, describe the relationship between the temperature of the city and the number of people at the swimming pool. (5 points)

Part B: Describe how you can make the line of best fit. Write the approximate slope and y-intercept of the line of best fit. Show your work, including the points that you use to calculate slope and y-intercept. (5 points)

From the given data above, I used a scatter plot to present my graph using microsoft excel and added a trend line to get the line of best fit. The equation that I got is y = 2.3775x + 1.1011 and the r² = 0.8922.

Part A: The temperature of the city is directly proportional with the number of people at the swimming pool because it showed an r² = 0.8922. Also, the line is linear with first degree.

Part B: You can make a line of best fit by:

1. Plot your data in a graphing paper or excel.

2. Make sure that your plotted data has a solid mark to indicate the points in the graph.

3. Divide your data points by labeling x at the center, at the farthest part of your line (left or right diagonally).

4. If you feel that the data are now finely divided, then construct a line base on the x marks you're placing

5. Then you will notice how far or near your date points are by simply looking at the points near the constructed line that you created.
