Start by creating a scatterplot to represent the table below



Now use Desmos to find the regression equation. Using this regression equation, how long should someone work out if they want to burn 600 calories?

Here is the table we are going to use:

Time (minutes) | Calories Burned
--- | ---
10 | 100
20 | 200
30 | 300
40 | 400
50 | 500
60 | 600
70 | 700

I will create a scatterplot using Desmos to visualize the relationship between time and calories burned.

After finding the regression equation, we can use it to estimate the amount of time needed to burn 600 calories. Let me do the calculations.
