Question

SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question. Provide an appropriate response. 1) Use the data in the table to answer the question. The x-values are amounts of saturated fat1) (in grams) in various regular two-ounce muffins. The y-values are amounts of saturated fat (in grams) in various "low fat" two-ounce muffins. Amounts of Saturated Fat in Regular and Low-Fat Muffins x | 3.7 4.9 4.3 6.4 4.2 4.5 y1.2 2.1 22 1.9 1.4 24 Is each x-value matched with a corresponding y-value? That is, is each x-value associated with the corresponding y-value in some meaningful way? If the x- and y-values are not matched, does it make sense to use the difference between each x-value and the y-value that is in the same column?

Explanation / Answer

no , each x-value is not associated with y-value in meaningful way

because as x increase sometime y increase (3.7 to 4.9 for x values), but sometime y decrease (4.3 to 6.4 ) even x increases

yes, it makes sense to use the difference between each x-value and y-value as it will tell the difference in amount saturated fat between regulat and low-fat muffin
