Question

5.)Linear associations form a straight line on a graph. Nonlinear associations produce a curved line or other pattern that is not a straight line.

Other associations are positive, negative, and no association. Describe each of these three associations and provide a real world example of each type of association.

Answer 1

See below.

Explanation:

Positive association is when the line has a positive slope, and the line progresses upwards.

E.g. When a car is traveling, as time progresses, the distance traveled increases.

Negative association is when the line has a negative slope, and the line declines.

E.g. When a car is traveling, as time progresses, the amount of gasoline decreases.

No association is when there is no slope between points, nor is there a line.
