Question

mr. lees students
the equation for the line of best fit is ( y = -6x + 92 ). according to the equation, which of these statements is true?
a student with no absences would likely score about 92%.
a student with 6 absences would likely score about 92%.

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute \(x = 0\) into the equation \(y=-6x + 92\)

When \(x = 0\), \(y=-6\times0+92=92\)

Step2: Substitute \(x = 6\) into the equation \(y=-6x + 92\)

When \(x = 6\), \(y=-6\times6 + 92=-36+92 = 56\)

Answer:

A. A student with no absences would likely score about 92%.
