1 4.2.4: Warm-up, Pg.81 The data table to the right shows temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit taken at 7:00 A. M. and noon on 8 different days throughout the year in a small town in Siberia. Use the table to complete problems 1 and 2. Then use your knowledge of equations to answer the remaining questions. 1 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data 7:00 A.

2 1.Plot the points on a scatter plot. Plot each point in the form (x, y). 2 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

3 2.Describe the shape of the points. The points appear to be on a straight line. The points are linear. 3 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

4 3.If x = the number of students in class and y = the number of index cards a teacher needs to purchase if every students needs 8, and she wants a couple of extra cards, what is the slope of the line with the equation y = 8x + 2 that models this scenario? For a line in the form y = mx + b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope of the line is 8. 4 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

5 4.What is the graph of the equation y = –x + 1? The equation is in the form y = mx + b, so the graph will be a line. 5 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

6 The relationship between two variables can be estimated using a function. The equation can be used to estimate values that are not in the observed data set. How to determine which type of equation should be used for a data set: 1) Create a scatter plot of the data. Data that has a linear shape, or can be approximated by a straight line, can be fitted to a linear equation. Points in the data set can be used to find a linear equation that is a good approximation for the data. Only two points are needed to draw a line. 6 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

7 Introduction, continued Drawing a line through two data points on the same coordinate plane as the scatter plot helps display how well the line matches the data set. If the line is a good fit for the data, some data points will be above the line and some data points will be below the line. After creating a graphical representation of a line that fits the data, find the equation of this line using the two known points on the line. Use the two known points on the line to calculate the slope and y-intercept of the line. 7 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

8 Key Concepts A scatter plot that can be estimated with a linear function will look approximately like a line. A line through two points in the scatter plot can be used to find a linear function that fits the data. If a line is a good fit for a data set, some of the data points will be above the line and some will be below the line. The general equation of a line in point-slope form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. 8 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

9 Key Concepts, continued To find the equation of a line with two known points, calculate the slope and y-intercept of a line through the two points. Slope is the change in y divided by the change in x; a line through the points (x 1, y 1 ) and (x 2, y 2 ) has a slope of. 9 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

10 Key Concepts, continued To find the y-intercept, or b in the equation y = mx + b: 1)replace m with the calculated slope 2)replace x and y with values of x and y from a point on the line 3)then solve the equation for b. For example, for a line with a slope of 2 containing the point (1, –3), m = 2, y = –3, and x = 1; –3 = (2)(1) + b, and –5 = b. 10 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data

11 Common Errors/Misconceptions thinking that a line is a good estimate for data that is not linear drawing a line that is not a good fit for the data, and calculating the equation of this line miscalculating the slope of a line using two points on the line incorrectly calculating the y-intercept when finding the equation of a line given a graph 11 4.2.4: Fitting Linear Functions to Data
