standard_description: Use the equation of a linear model to solve problems in the context of bivariate measurement data, interpreting the slope and intercept. For example, in a linear model for a biology experiment, interpret a slope of 1.5 cm/hr as meaning that an additional hour of sunlight each day is associated with an additional 1.5 cm in mature plant height.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Each point in the scatterplot below shows one individual’s height, in inches, and weight, in pounds.
The range of the data presented is
$${120 \leq y \leq 190}$$
.
The domain of the data presented is
$${63 \leq x \leq 72}$$
.

Label the axes with the appropriate variables and units, and mark quantities on the axes in an appropriate scale.
Problem 2
Match the scatterplot with the description. Write a scenario for the scatterplot that does not have a description.
