Question

create a scatter plot. then describe any correlation. which image draws the correct scatter plot?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify Data Points

First, list the (Gaming, Sleeping) pairs from the table: (6, 8), (4, 6.5), (5.5, 7), (3, 10), (4, 9), (6, 8), (10, 6), (8, 6.5), (6, 7), (5, 9).

Step2: Analyze Scatter Plot Options

A scatter plot should have individual points, not lines (so eliminate the ones with lines). The x - axis is "Hours Gaming per Week" and y - axis is "Hours Sleeping per Night". Check the coordinates: as gaming hours increase, sleeping hours generally decrease (negative correlation). The second option (with the blue - checked - like area? Wait, looking at the options, the second plot (the one with points showing a negative trend, individual points, x - axis gaming, y - axis sleeping) matches. The first has wrong axis labels? Wait, the correct scatter plot should plot each (gaming, sleeping) point. The second image (the one with points, x - axis "Hours Gaming per Week", y - axis "Hours Sleeping per Night") is correct as it has individual data points and the trend (negative correlation) matches the data.

Answer:

The second scatter plot (the one with individual points, x - axis labeled "Hours Gaming per Week" and y - axis labeled "Hours Sleeping per Night", showing a negative correlation trend) is the correct one. (Assuming the second option in the multiple - choice is the one with the correct point plotting and axis labels. If we use the option identifiers, say if the options are A, B, C, D, and B is the one with individual points, x - axis gaming, y - axis sleeping, then the answer is B. Option Text (the one with individual data points for (Hours Gaming, Hours Sleeping) and showing a negative correlation trend).)
