The scatter plot shows a hiker’s elevation above sea level during a hike from the base to the top of a mountain. The equation of a trend line for the hiker’s elevation is y=7.75x+608, where x represents the number of minutes and y represents the hiker’s elevation in feet. Use the equation of the trend line to estimate the hiker’s elevation after 165 minutes.

Answer:

y=1886.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To estimate the hiker's elevation after 165 minutes using the given equation of the trend line

�

=

7.75

y+608

y=7.75x+608, you can substitute

y=165

x=165 into the equation and solve for

y=7.75×165+608

Let's calculate:

y= 1278.75

+

608

y=1278.75+608

y=1886.75

So, the estimated hiker's elevation after 165 minutes is approximately

1886.75

1886.75 feet above sea level.
