Exploring Unit 9 Section 1 Concepts

The video tutorial introduces scatter plots, explaining how they visually represent relationships between two variables. It covers positive, negative, and no associations, and demonstrates how to create scatter plots using Desmos. The tutorial explains the correlation coefficient, its range, and how it indicates the strength and direction of a linear relationship. Practical examples are provided to calculate and interpret correlation coefficients.

What type of graph is used to display the relationship between two variables?

• Scatter Plot

• Line Graph

• Bar Graph

• Pie Chart

In a scatter plot, what does it indicate if the dots are spread out with no discernible pattern?

• Strong Correlation

• No Association

• Negative Association

• Positive Association
