- - Given a value, to find the other value, use follow the line that the dot is on and check the value on the other axis. For example, if a point is on `(1, 2)`, if you are given `2`, to get `1`, just following the vertical line to find the corresponding number on the `x-axis`.

## Line Of Best Fit ## Line Of Best Fit
- A line that represents the `trend` in a graph.
### How To Find The Line of Best Fit ### How To Find The Line of Best Fit
1. Find two points **```ON```** the ```line of best fit``` 1. Simply draw the line according to the properties of the line below.
2. Determine the ```slope``` using the two points 2. Use a ruler when drawing the line.
3. Use ```point-slope form``` to find the equation of the ```line of best fit``` 3. Make sure the line of best fit represents the trend.

## Curve Of Best Fit
- A curve that represents the `trend` in a graph.
### How To FInd The Curve Of Best Fit
1. Simply draw a curve that connects all the points.
2. You can also use an online graphing calculator, like [DESMOS](https://www.desmos.com/calculator).

## Graphing Linear Relations
- A linear relation is a `straight line`.
### Graphing Using Table Of Values
- To graph the relation, first look at the `Table of Values`.
- Then decide which columns are the x and y axis.
- Then do a scatter plot/graph, where the numbers are the points.
- Example:
- Given the table of values:
- |Hours Worked|Pay in dollars|
|:--|:-----|
|3|100|
|6|200|
|9|300|
|12|400|
- First label the x and y axis, since time is the **independent variable**, the `Hours Worked` will be `x-axis`. The `Pay in dollars` will be our y-axis.
