Question

football passing statistics
the scatterplot and trend line show the number of
pass attempts and passing yards a football team had
during seven seasons.
because none of the data points lie on the trend line,
you must find two points on the line.
point 1 can be
(236, 2855)
point 2 can be
(233, 2850)
(245, 2860)
using those tw
ope of the line is

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the slope formula

The slope formula is \(m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\).

Step2: Identify the two points

Let Point 1 be \((236,2855)\) and Point 2 be \((245,2860)\).

Step3: Substitute into the slope formula

\(m=\frac{2860 - 2855}{245 - 236}=\frac{5}{9}\approx0.56\)

Answer:

\(\frac{5}{9}\)
