fireworks and injuries these data were obtained for the years 1993 through 1998 and indicate the number of fireworks (in millions) used and the related injuries. fireworks in use x | related injuries y 115 | 10,900 118 | 7800 113 | 7000 67.6 | 12,100 87.1 | 12,600 (a) draw a scatter plot. fireworks and injuries fireworks (millions) injuries

Explanation:

Step1: Identify Data Points

The data pairs are: (115, 10900), (118, 7800), (113, 7000), (67.6, 12100), (87.1, 12600).

Step2: Plot on Scatter Plot

For each (x,y) where x is fireworks in use (millions) and y is injuries:

• Locate x on the horizontal axis (fireworks) and y on the vertical axis (injuries).
• Mark points: (115, 10900), (118, 7800), (113, 7000), (67.6, 12100), (87.1, 12600).

Answer:

Scatter plot with points at (115, 10900), (118, 7800), (113, 7000), (67.6, 12100), (87.1, 12600) (plotted on axes with x: fireworks (millions), y: injuries).
