Question

below is a table that has the number of houses in a neighborhood and the number of trees in that same neighborhood. create a scatter plot using the data provided and answer the following questions.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the data - pairs

The first row represents the number of houses and the second row represents the number of trees in the same neighborhood. Each column forms a data - pair (number of houses, number of trees). For example, the first pair is (150, 360).

Step2: Set up the scatter - plot axes

On the x - axis, label it as "Number of Houses" and on the y - axis, label it as "Number of Trees". Choose an appropriate scale for each axis based on the range of values. The number of houses ranges from 20 to 380, and the number of trees ranges from 38 to 570.

Step3: Plot the data points

For each data - pair (x, y) where x is the number of houses and y is the number of trees, mark a point on the scatter - plot. For example, for the pair (150, 360), find 150 on the x - axis and 360 on the y - axis and mark the intersection point. Do this for all 9 data - pairs.

Step4: Analyze the scatter - plot

Look for any patterns in the scatter - plot. If the points seem to form a linear pattern (either positive or negative), it indicates a linear relationship between the number of houses and the number of trees. If the points are randomly scattered, there may be no clear relationship.

Since we can't actually draw the scatter - plot here, the steps to create and interpret it are as above.

Answer:

Follow the above steps to create and interpret the scatter - plot.
