SOLUTION: Just not sure how to get started. I think that once I do, I will be fine. F = 1.8 �C + 32.0 The following data were calculated in this way: Temperature �F Miles east

Question 176113: Just not sure how to get started. I think that once I do, I will be fine.
F = 1.8 �C + 32.0
The following data were calculated in this way:
Temperature �F
Miles east from starting point

85.2
0

84.5
15

83.6
25

Provide a plot of temperature versus distance east. Based on its appearance, is it a good linear model for predicting temperature as a function of distance?
Use the graph to determine the expected temperature at 75 miles east,
Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Graph the data using distance east as x axis (start at 0 and go to 75 at least) and temperature as the y axis.
Then see if you can fit a straight line through the data.
If so, then it is a good linear model.
Look at your straight line and read off the value at x=75. That will be the expected temperature at 75 miles east.
Please post another question if you get stuck.
I'll start you off here plotting (0,85.2)
