Question

1. the data in the table shows the number of ice cream cones that ahmed sold at his ice cream shop and the high temperature for that day.

temperature (°f)	ice cream cones sold
86	36
103	55
66	12
78	27

a. create a scatter plot that represents the data.
b. draw a line of best fit through the data.

Explanation:

Step1: Prepare graph axes

On a graph, label the x - axis as "Temperature (°F)" and the y - axis as "Ice Cream Cones Sold".

Step2: Plot data points

For the first data - point, when the temperature is 93°F and 40 ice - cream cones are sold, plot the point (93, 40). Similarly, plot the points (86, 36), (103, 55), (66, 12), and (78, 27).

Step3: Draw line of best fit

Visually estimate a line that passes as close as possible to most of the data points. This line should represent the general trend of the data.

Answer:

a. A scatter - plot with points (93, 40), (86, 36), (103, 55), (66, 12), (78, 27) is created.
b. A line of best fit is drawn through the plotted points to represent the trend.
