Question

which data point has an actual y - value that is 2 more than the y - value predicted by the
f best fit for the corresponding x - value?
a (1,6)
b (3,8)

Explanation:

Step1: Check option A

For the point \((1,6)\), look at the line of best - fit at \(x = 1\). The predicted \(y\) - value on the line of best - fit at \(x=1\) is \(4\). The actual \(y\) - value is \(6\). And \(6-4 = 2\).

Step2: Check option B

For the point \((3,8)\), look at the line of best - fit at \(x = 3\). The predicted \(y\) - value on the line of best - fit at \(x = 3\) is \(7\). The actual \(y\) - value is \(8\). And \(8 - 7=1
eq2\).

Answer:

A. \((1,6)\)
