What is the equation of the line of best fit for the following data? round the slope and y-intercept of the line to three decimal places. x y 2 30 5 19 7 20 12 9 16 2 a. y = -1.893x + 31.901 b. y = 1.893x - 31.901 c. y = 31.901x - 1.893 d. y = -31.901x + 1.893

Option: A is the correct answer.

A. y = -1.893x + 31.901

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a table of values as:

x         y

2       30

5       19

7       20

12       9

16       2

Now clearly from the set of values we see that with the increasing value of x the y-value is decreasing this means that the correlation is negative.

Hence, the slope of the line of best fit will be negative.

Hence, option: B and option: C are discarded.

Hence, when we plot the data values in a scatter plot.

We see that the equation of line of best fit is:

21

jk it's 20

step-by-step explanation:

the answer would be 44.79
