Expert Solution
Step 1

Scatter Plot : 

Scatter plot is a graphical representation to display relationship between two quantitative variables . It uses dots to represent values for two different numeric variables. The position of each dot on the horizontal and vertical axis indicates values for an individual data point. 

Scatter plot can be interpreted as : 

  • If the data show an uphill pattern as you move from left to right, this indicates a positive relationship between X and Y. As the X-values increase (move right), the Y-values tend to increase (move up).

  • If the data show a downhill pattern as you move from left to right, this indicates a negative relationship between X and Y. As the X-values increase (move right) the Y-values tend to decrease (move down).

  • If the data don’t seem to resemble any kind of pattern (even a vague one), then no relationship exists between X and Y
