Find the residual values, and use the graphing calculator tool to make a residual plot.

Question illustration
A
Yes, because the points have no clear pattern.
B
No, the points have no pattern.
C
No, the points are in a linear pattern.
D
Yes, the points are in a curved pattern.

Consider the plot created from the residuals of a line of best fit for a set of data.

Question illustration
A
Yes, the points have no pattern.
B
Yes, the points are evenly distributed about the x-axis.
C
No, the points are in a linear pattern.
D
No, the points are in a curved pattern.
4
