Question

a researcher studied the relationship between the number of times a certain species of cricket will chirp in one minute and the temperature outside. her data is expressed in the scatter plot and line of best fit below. what does the point (132, 73.9) represent?

Explanation:

In a scatter - plot, each point represents a pair of values for the two variables being studied. Here, the x - axis represents chirps per minute and the y - axis represents temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. So the point (132, 73.9) means that when the cricket chirps 132 times per minute, the outside temperature is 73.9 degrees Fahrenheit.

Answer:

When the cricket chirps 132 times per minute, the outside temperature is 73.9 degrees Fahrenheit.
