Game: FOUR IN A ROW
Aim: To get four symbols in a row
Method:
Choose a square and click on it. Click on the correct answer to the question in the box that appears. If you are right the square is replaced by a tick. Continue until you have won 4 in a row...
8th grade / Statistics / Two variables / Scatter graphs / Line 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 correlated (linked or related). If the variables are correlated, you will be able to draw a line of best fit. The more strongly two variables are correlated, the more closely the points will intersect the line of best fit. We are mainly concerned with linear correlation in this topic - the line of best fit is a straight line.
Drawing lines of best fit involves trying to pass the straight line through as many points as possible, with the remaining points being evenly distritbuted above and below the line.
One of the benefits of being able to draw a line of best fit is that it enables us to predict values for one of the variables that we don't have a data point for.
In this topic you are asked to decide which of the given lines is the best fit for the data points provided. The lines are labelled as A, B and C. We have included a few curved lines too.
With our Four in a row math game you will be practicing the topic "Line of best fit" from 8th grade / Statistics / Two variables / Two variables. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to identify which of the lines is closest to being a line of best fit for the data.
The game will reinforce the math you have chosen to learn by getting you to match the question to the correct answer.
