(a) draw the scatter plot for the variables.
drivers age and accidents
accidents
age

Explanation:

Step1: Identify axes

Age = x-axis, Accidents = y-axis.

Step2: Plot data points

Mark each (Age, Accidents) pair on the graph. For example: (20,4) means x=20, y=4; (21,3) means x=21, y=3; and so on for all 8 pairs.

Step3: Label graph

Title: "Drivers' Age and Accidents"; x-label: "Age"; y-label: "Accidents".

Answer:

Scatter plot with Age (x-axis) and Accidents (y-axis) plotting points (20,4), (21,3), (41,0), (37,2), (49,0), (26,5), (25,6), (38,3).
