Lola measures the heights and arm spans of the girls on her basketball team. She plots the data and makes a scatterplot comparing heights and arm
spans, in inches. Lola finds that the trend line that best fits her results has the
equation y = x + 2. If a girl on her team is 65 inches tall, what should Lola
expect her arm span to be?
