Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
33

The point (12,12) is 3 full girid lines away from the line of best fit, which goes through (12,9).To find percent difference between the expected and actual y-values, use the percent change formula. Note that the phrasing of the questin indicates that the orginal value of use is 9, the y-value on the line of best fit: `(12-9)/(9)xx100%=3/9xx100%=33.3%.`
