65 | 25 |
70 | 25 |
Using a graphing utility, draw a
scatter diagram of the data, treating speed as the independent variable. What type of relation appears to exist between speed and miles per gallon?Based on your response to part (a), Find either a linear model or a quadratic model that describes the relation between speed and miles per gallon?
