Question


The scatterplot above shows data collected on the lengths and widths of Iris setosa petals. A line of best fit for the data is also shown. Based on the line of best fit, if the width of an Iris setosa petal is 19 millimeters, what is the predicted length, in millimeters, of the petal?

  1. 21.10
  2. 31.73
  3. 52.83
  4. 55.27

hintHint:

We put the value of x in the equation of the fitted line to get the predicted length.

The correct answer is: 52.83


    Step 1 of 1 :
    The equation of the fitted line is given by, y equals 1.67 x plus 21.1, where y = length (millimeters) and x = width (millimeters).
    Now, for the width of 19 millimetres of an Iris setosa petal, the predicted length would be
