Question

Scientists believe there is a link between ambient temperature and damage to a head gasket on a car. Using the provided information, draw a scatterplot of the data. Based on the information, what might the approximate damage index be if the temperature was 10° Celsius? A) 5 B) 7 C) 10 D) 13

Answer 1

D) 13

Explanation:

The lower temperatures have a negative correlation so the lower the temperature the higher the damage index. Therefore a temperature of 10° Celsius should have a damage index higher than that of 12° Celsius so the only option is 13.
