Scatter Plot and Box Plots

What is a scatter plot?

• A graph that shows the relationship of two data sets.

• A graph drawn using rectangular bars to show how large each value is.

• A graph that shows information that is connected in some way.

• A graph that shows data changing over time.

What type of correlation does this graph have?

• positive

• negative

• none

• all of the above

Which relationship could be represented by this scatter plot?

• As the number of muffins in a box increases, the price increases.

• As the speed of a car increases, the distance the car travels increases.

• As the population of a city increases, the number of schools in the

  city increases.

• As the number of daylight hours increases, the number of night hours decreases.

What type of correlation does this scatter plot show?

• positive linear association

• negative linear association

• no association

• nonlinear association

Which sentence describes the relationship shown on this scatter plot?

• As the temperature decreases, the visitors increase. 

• As the temperature increases, the number of visitors increases. 

• As the visitors increase, the temperature decreases. 

• No correlation

What relationship is shown in the scatter plot?

• As the cost goes down, the number sold goes down.

• As the cost goes up, the number sold goes down.

• As the cost goes down, the number sold remains the same.

• There is not relationship between cost and the number sold.

What is the trend for this scatter plot

• Negative

• Positive

• None

If a scatterplot has no association then...

• ...it has no ordered pairs

• ...it has ordered pairs that have a negative pattern

• ...its ordered pairs have no predictable pattern

• ...if it makes a lion on a graph (roar!)

In a scatterplot, an outlier...

• ...is something we didn't learn 8th grade

• ...is a puppet with a long nose named Pinocchio

• ...is a point that is far outside the main cluster of points/ordered pairs

• ...is a really naughty point who doesn't tell the truth when outside

JoBeth draws a scatter plot that shows as the outside temperature increases, sales at her lemonade stand increase. Which best describes the scatter plot?

• The points show that as x-values increase, y-values increase.

• The points show that as x-values increase, y-values decrease.

• The points show that as x-values decrease, y-values stay the same.

• The points show that as x-values decrease, y-values increase.
