Mr. Walker gave his students a poem to mernorize and present to the class. After the presentations, he gathered data about the time each of seven students spent memorizing their poem and the number of errors each made when presenting it to the class.
He used a graphing tool to display the data in a scatter plot, with x representing the minutes spent memorizing the poem and y representing the number of
errors. Then he used the tool to find the equation of the line of best fit:
y = -0.118x + 14.327.
Based on the line of best fit, approximately how many minutes did a student spend memorizing the poem if the student made 12 errors when presenting it to
the class?
