Answer 2

Answer:

B) 80  

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, the scatter plot is shown.

If you make a linear regression of data (I made it Excel, you can also use a calculator) you will get the following equation:

y = 0.1893*x + 60.355

where y is Test grade and x is Minutes studying. Replacing with x = 95, we get:

0.1893*95 + 60.355 ≈ 80
