Which sentence best supports the relationship shown on this scatter plot?

• The more time spent training, the longer it takes to run 100 m.

• As the time spent training increases, the time to run 100 m decreases.

• As the time spent training decreases, the time to run 100 m decreases.

• There is no apparent association between the amount of time spent training and the time it takes to run 100 m.

• y = -5/8x + 6

• y = 5/8x + 6

• y =-8/5x + 6

• y = 8/5x + 6
