The scatterplot below was created from a table of values and represents the relationship between the number of seconds spent doing sit-ups and the number of sit-ups completed for some of the members of a physical education class.
A) The trend is increasing throughout the entire scatterplot.
B) There is no trend apparent in the scatterplot.
C) The trend is decreasing throughout the entire scatterplot.
D) The trend increases, then levels off.
To determine the correct answer, we would need to analyze the scatterplot for patterns. However, without seeing the scatterplot, I can’t provide a specific answer. Generally, if the points rise as you move from left to right, then the trend is increasing (A); if they scatter without a clear direction, there may be no trend (B); if they fall from left to right, the trend is decreasing (C); or if they rise initially but then stabilize, that indicates leveling off (D).
For further clarity, I’d recommend checking the description of your scatterplot carefully. If you need more in-depth assistance, consider the extended services page.
