Arjun, Abigail, and Luna are having a debate. Arjun says a scatter plot is used to show the distribution of a single variable, Abigail thinks it's to compare the means of two groups, Luna believes it's to display the trend over time. But, who is correct? What is the actual purpose of a scatter plot?

• To show the distribution of a single variable.

• To compare the means of two groups.

• To display the trend over time.

• To display the relationship between two variables.

Zoe, Avery, and Aria are trying to understand the relationship between two variables in a scatter plot. How can they interpret this relationship?

• They can interpret the relationship by observing the pattern or trend of the plotted points.

• They can interpret the relationship by measuring the distance between the plotted points.

• They can interpret the relationship by looking at the color of the plotted points.

• They can interpret the relationship by connecting the plotted points with straight lines.
