It seems like you are trying to match a line of best fit to a scatter plot, but I don't have access to any visuals or specific options to help you directly with that. However, I can provide you with some general tips on how to match the equation of the line with the scatter plot.

  1. Identify the Slope: Look at the steepness and direction of the line of best fit. A positive slope means the line goes up from left to right, while a negative slope means it goes down.

  2. Y-Intercept: Check where the line crosses the y-axis. This point gives you the y-intercept of the line.

  3. General Form of an Equation: The equation of a line is usually in the form \(y = mx + b\), where:

    • \(m\) is the slope,
    • \(b\) is the y-intercept.

  4. Compare to Given Equations: Once you have identified the slope and intercept from the graph, find the equation that matches these values.

If you have specific equations or a description of the scatter plot that you want to compare, feel free to share, and I can help you analyze the information!
