1 Day 37 Beginner line of the best fit

2 Introduction In this presentation, we are interested representing data for two variables (called binomial variables) whose relation may appear to be linear. Since our interest in a linear relation, we seek to find the algebraic representation (an equation) for the data plotted.

3 Vocabulary: Scatter plot It is a graph composed of points representing the relationship between data of two related variables Line of the best fit It is the line in a scatter plot that best represents the points plotted This can be done in the notebooks or on vocabulary cards. Whatever system you use 
