WHAT IS THE ANSWER

Jacob is a marathon runner. He wants to know if a relationship exists between male runners' ages and their marathon times. He used data from the New York City Marathon to create the scatterplot below. Select the trend line and reasoning that would best show the relationship between marathon runners' ages and race times. Mean race time of top 10 runners of that age. 350 300 e 250 @ 200 150 04 o ete ove 100 wi oS Marathon race times in minutes S 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 Age An exponential trendline is best because older men tend to have much slower running times. An exponential trendline is best because men between 25 and 30 are the fastest. Race times increase for men who are both older and younger than 25-30
