Explanation:

I took the test! :))

Answer 2

The Solution:

Given:

Required:

To determine the type of association (relationship) that exists between the time (hrs) and the distance from the destination (miles).

Below is the scatterplot of the given data:

From the scatter plot above, it is clear that a negative linear association exists between the two quantitis of concern.

Therefre, the correct answer is [option 2]
