Graph the set of points. Which model is most appropriate for the set?

Question

(-6,4)(-4,0)(-3,-2)(-1,-7)

Answer 1

To graph these points, we can plot each one on a coordinate plane:


Looking at the shape of the points, it appears to be a line that is sloping downwards from left to right. Therefore, the most appropriate model for this set would be a linear model (i.e. a straight line).
