Question

What type of association does the graph show between x and y? (5 points)

A graph shows scale on x axis and y axis from 0 to 12 at increments of 1. Dots are made at ordered pairs 1, 1 and 2, 2 and 3, 3 and 4, 4 and 5, 5 and 6, 6 and 7, 7 and 8, 8 and 9, 9 and 10, 10.

Linear positive association

Nonlinear positive association

Linear negative association

Nonlinear negative association

Answer 1

I think the answer is Linear positive association

Explanation:

Answer 2

Linear positive association

EXPLANATION

As the values of x are increasing, the values of y are also increasing.

We can actually find the slope of this curve to be,

`m = (2 - 1)/(2 - 1) = + 1`

We can see that the slope is positive.

This indicates a linear positive association between x and y.

The correct choice is A.
