Question

ooo T-Mobile LTE 5:16 PM wamap.org A local ice cream shop kept track of the number of cans of cold soda it sold each day, and the temperature that day, for two months during the summer. The data are displayed in the scatterplot below 195 190 185 180 175 165 65 75 85 95 Temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (F) Which of the following is the best description of the relationship between X and Y as it appears in the scatterplot? O Positive linear relationship with outlier(s) O Positive linear relationship with no outlier(s) O Positive nonlinear relationship with outlier(s) O Negative linear relationship with no outlier(s) ONegative nonlinear relationship with outlier(s) O Negative nonlinear relationship with no outlier(s)

Explanation / Answer

(a) Explanation:

The above scatterplot enables us that there exists a positive linear relationship between the variables with outliers and it is the best description of the linear relationship between X and Y as it appears in the scatterplot.

(b) Explanation:

It is obviously scatterplot, because it best describes the linear relationship between the variables IQ level and birth order. The scatterplot illustrates how we can measure the linear relationship between the two quantitative varibles.
