Question

describe the association in the scatter plot below.
answer
the scatter plot shows association because as the plotted values of ( x ) increase, the values of ( y ) generally

Explanation:

In a scatter - plot, if as \(x\) increases, \(y\) generally increases, it is a positive association. If \(x\) increases and \(y\) generally decreases, it is a negative association. If there is no clear pattern, it is no association. Here, as \(x\) increases, \(y\) generally increases.

Answer:

The scatter plot shows a positive association because as the plotted values of \(x\) increase, the values of \(y\) generally increase.
