Question

the scatter plot shows a relationship Which best describes of the data in the scatter plot? A ) linear with a negative correlation B.) nonlinear with a negation correlation C.) nonlinear with a positive correlation D.) linear with a positive correlation ​

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

it is linear because it is a straight line, and positive because the x and y are both increasing

Answer 2

Option D) Linear with positive correlation.

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

We are given a scatter plot.

Scatter Plot:

• A scatter plot is a two-dimensional data visualization that uses dots to represent the values obtained for two different variables or data sets, one plotted along the x-axis and the other plotted along the y-axis
• A scatter plot help us to graph or visualize two sets of data.
• It help us to know about the correlation between the two sets of data.
• If the data is positively correlated, both the quantities increase together and if they have a negative correlation then with increase in one quantity the other decreases.

• Scatter plots are very useful tools for conveying the relationship between two variables.

The figure shows a linear relationship a s we can see a straight line shape of the scatter plot. And with increase in one variable the other variable increases which shows a positive correlation.

Hence, Option D) Linear with positive correlation.
