Answer:

1. quadratic

2. quadratic

3. linear

4. quadratic

Explanation:

In the picture attached, the scatter plots are shown.

The differences between these correlations are:

  • linear : makes a straight line
  • quadratic: makes a ∩ or ∪
  • exponential: rises or falls quickly in one direction

In plot 1, 2 and 4, we can see that y-values decrease at first and then they increase. This is a feature of quadratic correlation

In plot 3, we can see that y-values increase uniformly as x-values increase.This is a feature of linear correlation

Classify the relationship represented in each scatter plot as linear, quadratic or-example-1
