Now Make a Prediction! Now that you have made a graph of past gold medal winning long jumps, use it to predict the winning distances for the next three Olympics using a line of best fit. This can also be done with a graphing calculator by using the LinReg feature after entering the data into a stat plot.
State the Results Write a short summary of what you did that answers the following questions: -Why does your line of best fit represent the data given? -According to your graph, what distance will the winning long jump be at the ‘08, ‘12, and ‘16 Olympic Games be? Now post your results on a blog or wiki so that people on the internet can discuss your analysis.
