About this resource
This quiz covers scatter plots and data analysis, representing a core 8th-grade mathematics topic that focuses on understanding relationships between two quantitative variables. Students need a solid foundation in coordinate graphing, linear equations, and the ability to interpret visual data patterns to succeed with these problems. The quiz comprehensively assesses students' ability to identify positive, negative, and no correlation relationships; understand and apply lines of best fit for making predictions; interpret scatter plot vocabulary including clusters and outliers; and work with linear equations in the context of real-world data scenarios. Students must demonstrate skills in reading graphs, substituting values into equations, calculating slope, and distinguishing between correlation types based on contextual situations like temperature versus clothing layers or study time versus test scores. This quiz was created by a classroom teacher who designed it for students studying scatter plots and data analysis in grade 8. This assessment serves as an excellent comprehensive review or summative test covering all essential scatter plot concepts taught in middle school mathematics. Teachers can use this quiz for end-of-unit assessments, standardized test preparation, or as a diagnostic tool to identify areas where students need additional support before moving on to more advanced statistical concepts. The variety of question formats—from identifying correlation types to making predictions using trend lines—makes it ideal for formative assessment throughout the scatter plot unit. This quiz directly supports Common Core standards 8.SP.A.1, 8.SP.A.2, and 8.SP.A.3, which focus on constructing and interpreting scatter plots, understanding that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables, and using the equation of a linear model to solve problems in the context of bivariate measurement data.
