Using Equations to Represent Trend Lines

Question 5 • Pre-Algebra B

Using the points (6.4, 117) and (6.6, 120), what is the slope of the trend line?

Answer
A
–15
B
–12
C
12
D
15

Explanation

Use the slope formula: change in y divided by change in x. The slope is (120 − 117) ÷ (6.6 − 6.4) = 3 ÷ 0.2 = 15, so the correct choice is 15.
