Question

The main difference between a scatter plot and a line graph is _____.

A. a line graph has a best-fit line
B. a scatter plot has points plotted
C. a line graph has two lines for the axes
D. a scatter plot has several different sets of data

Answer 1

I think the answer is A

Answer 2

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A scatter plot, unlike a line graph which is connected by joining various dots to form the line, and hence to be able to gather the information by studying the pattern of line, is different in this sense.

One needs to study two different sets of Data in a scatter graph. The word scatter itself inclines us to the idea of knowing that all the information in this plot will not be found in one place like in the line graph. One has to compare information derived from data collection to another data collection in a scatter plot.

Note: Both have the Y and The X axis.
