Domain - Interpreting Categorical and Quantitative Data

Cluster - Interpret linear models.

[MI.S-ID.C.7] - Interpret the slope (rate of change) and the intercept (constant term) of a linear model in the context of the data.*

Resources:


  • Model
    A mathematical representation (e.g., number, graph, matrix, equation(s), geometric figure) for real-world or mathematical objects, properties, actions, or relationships.

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:

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