PLEASE HELP ME! I WILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIEST! 50 POINTS
I. Collect data from several fast-food chains on the number of fat calories and grams of saturated fat in menu items. A record at least 12 ordered pairs of (fat calories, grams of saturated fat). Organize your data in a table.

II. Make a scatter plot of the data on graph paper. Be sure to label the axes and use an appropriate title for the graph.
You may wish to use a graphing calculator, spread sheet, or other technology resource (such as the graphing utility link below) to aid you in graphing.

III. Draw a trend line for the scatter plot. Use the following scatter plot of the ordered pairs (fat grams, total calories) as an example.


IV. Calculate the slope of the trend line. (Choose two points on the line and find vertical change over horizontal change.)

Note: Graphing calculators and spread sheets have features with which to draw trend lines and determine the equation. You may choose to use one of these options. If you use technology, indicate what steps were taken to arrive at your equation.

V. Using the slope and y-intercept, write the equation of the trend line ( y = mx + b).
VI. Choose a "calories from fat" value that is not in your collected data set and that is at least 10 fat calories away from any collected value. Use the equation calculated in step V to predict the number of fat grams in an item having that number of fat calories. Be sure to show your work.

VII. Search for an item in a fast-food menu having the same number of fat calories as the one you chose above. (If you cannot find the exact value, get as close as you can.) Compare the calculated value from step VI to this actual value. Explain why (or why not) you would have expected your prediction (calculated value) to be close to the actual value.

Answer:

IV. Two points: (21,430), (29,541)

29/541 - 21/430,  541-430 = 111,  29 - 21 = 8 ,

now we have 111/8 which equals 13.87, or rounded to 14the slope is 14

V. the equation is y = 14x + 94

VI. If an item has 600 calories: y = 14x + 94, substitute for y, 600 = 14x + 94, 600 - 94 = 506, 506 divided by 14 = 36.14. There are approximately 36 grams of fat in an item that has 600 calories.

VII. In my estimate, I calculated that there would be approximately 36 grams of fat in a 600 calorie item. When compared to a menu item of 600, there was only about 29 grams of fat. There are many factors that can cause such a guessed difference in between these items' grams of fat. My estimate for one was expecting a higher content of fat than what is actually advertised on this fast food menu. The fast food items that I include in my scatter plot may have all had a higher calories to fat grams ratio in general compared to this singular menu item. The location of these fast food restaurants influences the produce, meat, and other ingredients that all add to the grams of fat in the item served on the menu.
