Game: CAT AND MOUSE
Aim: Catch the white mice
Method:
Move the cat with the arrow keys or by tapping in the game area to catch the white mouse. Avoid the red balloons but hit the blue balloons.
Your final score is based on all of that plus number of questions answered right, and the time taken.
7th grade / Statistics / Two variables / Scatter graphs / Using lines of best fit
Scatter graphs use points to represent values that correlate the relationship between two variables. The scatter graph will indicate the degree to which the two variables are linked or related. If the variables are linked, you will be able to draw a line of best fit. The more strongly two variables are correlated, the more closely the points will follow the line of best fit.
One of the benefits of being able to draw a line of best fit is that it enables you to predict values for one of the variables that you don't have a data point for. To do so, you must first locate the independent variable on the x-axis. Draw an imaginary vertical line from that value up to the line of best fit. To get the y-axis value, draw an imaginary horizontal line from the line of best fit to the y-axis to read off the value.
It should be stressed that these predicted values will always be approximations, just as the line of best fit is usually an approximation relative to the actual data which tends to contain more variability in it than can be accommodated by a line of best fit.
In this topic you are asked to use the provided line of best fit to predict values for the dependent variable (on the y-axis) given a value for the independent variable (on the x-axis).
With our Cat and mouse math game you will be practicing the topic "Using lines of best fit" from 7th grade / Statistics / Two variables / Two variables. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to in each instance use the given line of best fit to predict approximate values.
Cat versus mouse game with added balloons for math and fun. You are the ginger cat, and your life is being made a misery by some white mice which have come into the house and are proving hard to catch. Not to mention there is a mouse house party going on and lots of balloons getting in the way of your hunting.
So you have to catch the white mice, forget about the gray mice, hit the blue balloons but avoid the red balloons, and answer math questions (you are a CLEVER cat...). If it sounds complicated and a bit frantic, that's because it is. Do your best but don't worry if you can't catch all the mice - neither can we. It's a cat's life...
