Question

Mr. Adkins teaches a Current Events course and is known for making his final exam very thorough. He thinks that with the technology present today,
his students should be able to stay current with all possible news. The only way to ensure yourself a good grade is to dedicate many hours reading
newspapers, watching 24 hour news outlets, and scanning the internet, and even that may not give you the desired test score. Adkins' students
kept track of the hours that they studied the week previous to the test. Here is a breakdown of the hours that they studied and the score they
received on the test.

Answer 1

Answer:

Part 1:

Make a scatterplot that represents this data. You may use a program such as Excel, or make the scatterplot by hand and scan it.

Part 2:

Does this data have a positive correlation, negative correlation, or no correlation?

Part 3:

Without the use of technology, find the equation of the line of best fit for the data. Tell which points that you used and show the steps you used to get the equation. Refer to the first 4 steps on page 2 of the lesson titled "Linear Regression - Line of Best Fit" to use as a guide.

Part 4:

Use the equation found in part 3 to predict the scores for two people who studied for 15 hours and 9 hours. Refer to the last step on page 2 of the lesson titled "Linear Regression - Line of Best Fit" to use as a guide.

Compile the results from parts 1 through 4 and put them in a Word document. Submit the document to your teacher.
