Monday August 24, 2009 Essential Question How are relationships between components on a scatter-plot graph determined? What is a “line of best fit” or a “trend line”? SC-H-MF-U-2 Students will understand that the usefulness of a model can be tested by comparing its predictions to actual observations in the real world. But a close match does not necessarily mean that the model is the only “true” model or the only one that would work. Homework 1. Vocabulary List A is DUE 2. Writing Assignment: Tomatoes is DUE 3. Vocabulary List B will be due on Monday, 31 August. Tomorrow there will also be a short quiz. Vocabulary Quiz A 1. In space for name, be sure and put both your first and last names 2. Record your answer in the space provided left of the number 3. Turn your paper face down when finished Review 1. 2. 3. Scientific Method Experimental Design Tables and Graphs Regression Relationships are mathematical descriptions of the comparability of data. On graphs there are four basic types. The shape or appearance of the data gives hints as to the algebraic formula needed to model the data. Four types of relationships Direct Proportion Direct Variance Indirect Proportion Indirect Variance Circle Lab relationship The circle lab data indicates that circumference and diameter are a direct proportion…therefore a linear function model Using a straight edge, draw a line through the points C D Use the line to make the regression equation Linear function is y = mx + b y2 C Start by finding the slope, m m = y2 – y 1 / x2 – x1 y1 x1 D x2 What was your slope? Replace the y and x with the units on each axis
