Question
The scatterplot shows a data set of 11 points and a line of best fit for the data. For how many data points is they-value predicted by the line of best fit greater than the actual y-value?
- Five
- Six
- Seven
- Eight
The correct answer is: Five
The data points the value predicted greater than the actual value are the data points below the line of best fit.
Thus, we have 5 data points.
