three times from each height‚ found the mean. Our Y value represents the average bounce heights in centimeters and X represents the drop height in centimeters. We created a scatter plot to show our data (below). The line of best fit went through the points (80‚48.3) and (90‚54.3). To find the slope of the line we used the slope formula: M=(Y2 -- Y1)/(X2 -- X1). If (80‚48.3) is X1 and Y1 then (90‚54.3) is X2 and Y2. After this you take X2 and subtract it by X1 and the same with Y1 and Y2. So 90-80 is
