Read the labels carefully, identify the total or condition being used, and connect each statistic to what it tells about the data.  \n▷ Example: Find the mean of 6 , 8 , 10 , 12.  \nWork: Add the values to get 36, then divide by 4 values.  \n⋆ Answer: 9  \n♦ Practice Problems  \nSolve each problem. Show enough work that another student could follow your thinking.  \n1. Use y = 2x + 5 to predict y when x = 10 .  \n2. Use y = 􀀀3x + 40 to predict y when x = 7 .  \n3. What does slope mean in a line of best 􀀂t?  \n4. What does the intercept mean?  \n5. Is predicting inside the data range interpolation or extrapolation?  \n6. Is predicting beyond the data range interpolation or extrapolation?  \n7. A best-􀀂t line is y = 4x + 12 . What is the slope?  \n8. A residual is actual minus predicted. Actual 30, predicted  \n26. Find residual.  \n9. If residuals are mostly positive for large x, what may be wrong?  \n10. Use y = 1 .5x + 20 to predict at x = 8 .  \n♦ Word Problems  \n11. A plant model is h = 3d + 4 . Predict height at day 12.  \n12. A line of best 􀀂t predicts sales S = 250 􀀀 8p.

Average rate of change  9. The model may underpredict for large x  \n4. Predicted value when x = 0 10. 32  \n5.  Interpolation  11. 40  \n6.  Extrapolation  12.  \nSales decrease by about 8 for each 1-unit price increase  \nStep-by-Step Explanations  \n1. Predicting is just plugging in—swap x for 10 and compute 2(10) + 5 = 25 .  \n2. Drop 7 in for x and follow through: 􀀀3(7) + 40 lands on 19.  \n3. Slope tells you, on average, how much y shifts each time x goes up by one.  \n4. The intercept is where the model begins — the predicted y before x has moved at all.  \n5. Staying inside the range you actually collected data for is interpolation—the safer kind of prediction.  \n6. Reaching past the data you have is extrapolation, and it’s riskier since the pattern may not hold out there.  \n7. In y = mx + b, the slope is whatever multiplies x—so it’s 4 here.  \n8. A residual measures how far off the model was: 30 􀀀 26 = 4, so the prediction came in a bit low.  \n9. Positive residuals mean the real values sit above the line — the model is guessing too low up there.  \n10. Substitute 8 for x: 1.5(8) is 12, and adding 20 gives 32.  \n11. Let d = 12 and work it out: 3(12) + 4 = 40 for the predicted height.  \n12. The slope of 􀀀8 is a rate—every dollar the price climbs, p","cbCaiuqO3N7Gv0uN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuqO3N7Gv0uN","pdf",98585,"English","# Quick Review and Helpful Hints\n## Practice Problems\n## Word Problems\n## Answer Keys\n## Step-by-Step Explanations","[{\"question\":\"How do you use a line of best fit to make predictions?\",\"answer\":\"Substitute the given x value into the model equation and compute the corresponding y.
