Homework Thurs 11/8

Today we worked on completing pg. 105, #1 using the calculator to produce boxplots and scatterplots to answer the questions and look for patterns and trends. Using a calculator, we used height and weight data to produce a scatterplot, then did a linear regression [Stat]- [Calc]- [LinReg(a+bx)] to produce a best fit line in the form of y = a + bx. After graphic the scatterplot with the line, we created a table [2nd]-[Table] to examine the data and make predictions using the equation as a model. To rapidly move around a table, on your calculator, use [2nd]-[TblSet] to set up the starting x-value [TblStart= ] in the table and [change Tbl= ] to change the x-value increment amount.


We will continue on pg 106-107, #3 for next class.
