Practice this chapterA doesn’t belong because it is the only scatter plot with data that fit a line well and are increasing B doesn’t belong because it is the only scatter plot with data that would not fit a line well and do not show a pattern
Match the correlation coefficient with a scatter plot and linear model During this activity, you had an opportunity to use language precisely and to hear how you use terminology and talk about characteristics of items in comparison to one another
doesn’t belong because it — the only scatter plot with data that fit a line well and are increasing.
Be able to describe the “goodness of fit” of a linear model using the correlation coefficient.
