📖 How It Works

📈 TREND LINES

1
A scatterplot shows data points. A trend line (line of best fit) follows the pattern of the dots.
2
Dots rising left to right = positive association. Falling = negative. No pattern = no association.y = mx + b  →  m = slope, b = y-intercept
3
To match an equation: find b where the line crosses the y-axis, then count rise over run for m.

🔮 PREDICTIONS

1
A trend line lets you predict values you never measured — even beyond the data!
2
Given x, substitute it into the equation to predict y.y = 2x + 3, x = 5 → y = 2(5) + 3 = 13
3
Some questions ask you to tap the point right on the trend line — aim carefully!
