    Predecessor Standards:

    • 8.F.B.4
      Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values.
    • 8.SP.A.2
      Know that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables. For scatter plots that suggest a linear association, informally fit a straight line, and informally assess the model fit by judging the closeness of the data points to the line.
    • 8.SP.A.3
      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.

    Same Level Standards:

    • AI.S-ID.B.6.c
      Fit a linear function for a scatter plot that suggests a linear association.*
    • AI.S-ID.C.9
      Distinguish between correlation and causation.
