Algebra 1 scatter plots test: questions

Question 1 – Describe the association [2 pts]

Push-ups after weeks of training.

The scatter plot shows weeks of training and push-ups completed. Describe the direction and the strength of the association.

Question 2 – Write the line of fit [2 pts]

A line of fit passes through \((1, 12)\) and \((6, 32)\). Write its equation in slope-intercept form.

Question 3 – Interpret the model [2 pts]

In \(y = 4x + 8\), \(x\) is the number of weeks of training and \(y\) is the number of push-ups. Interpret the slope and the y-intercept.

Question 4 – Predict and find a residual [2 pts]

Use \(y = 4x + 8\) to predict the push-ups after 3 weeks. A student actually did 23. Find the residual.

Question 5 – Correlation coefficient [2 pts]

Describe each correlation coefficient: (a) \(r = -0.88\) (b) \(r = 0.2\).

Question 6 – Causation [2 pts]

Data show that cities with more fire trucks have more fire damage. Does this mean fire trucks cause more damage? Explain.

Question 7 – Two-way table [3 pts]

Lunch preference by grade.

One hundred students chose pizza or tacos for lunch.

Find the joint relative frequency of grade 7 students who chose tacos. (1 point)
Find the marginal relative frequency of students who chose pizza. (1 point)
Among grade 6 students, what percent chose pizza? (1 point)

Question 8 – Residuals [3 pts]

Data for question 8.

The line of fit for the data \((1, 4), (2, 4), (3, 9)\) is \(y = 2x + 1\).

Find the predicted value for each point. (1 point)
Find each residual. (1 point)
Which point is farthest from the line? (1 point)

Question 9 – Extrapolation [2 pts]

A line of fit \(y = 0.5x + 10\) was found from data with \(x\) between 20 and 60. Is it reasonable to predict at \(x = 40\)? At \(x = 200\)? Explain.

Key facts behind this algebra 1 scatter plots test

Key facts

A scatter plot can show positive, negative, or no association.
In a line of best fit, the slope is the rate of change and the intercept is the predicted value at x = 0.
Residual = actual value – predicted value.
The correlation coefficient r is between -1 and 1; correlation does not imply causation.
Two-way tables give joint, marginal, and conditional relative frequencies.

How to use this algebra 1 scatter plots test

Time yourself: the test is designed for an average student in 45 minutes. Answer the questions you are sure of first, then come back to the longer ones and check your units.
