Lines of Best Fit

Using a series of different scatter plots, students determined the line of best fit. We also talked about correlation. Scatterplots can show a positive correlation, negative correlation, or no correlation. If the data collected shows that as one value rises, so does the other, then the correlation is positive. If the data shows that as one value rises, the other falls, then the correlation is negative.
