The scatterplot shows temperature data from Nevada. The line of best fit, in blue, has equation C = 23.72 - 0.007m. For what elevation does the linear model predict a mean temperature of 15° C? (Round to two decimal places.)
A) 1245.71 meters
B) 1421.42 meters
C) 1645.71 meters
D) 1861.50 meters

Answer: A) 1245.71 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The line of best fit, in blue, has equation [tex]C = 23.72 - 0.007m[/tex]

When we put the mean temperature=15° C, we get

[tex]15= 23.72-0.007m\\\\\Rightarrow-0.007m=15-23.72\\\\\Rightarrow-0.007m=-8.72\\\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{-8.72}{-0.007}=1245.71428571\approx1245.71\ meters[/tex]

Hence, the linear model predict a mean temperature of 15° C for 1245.71 meters of elevation.
