Question

mat 102 test - general math
25 according to the chart, the heaviest person is also the tallest person
scatterplot of weight vs height (axes: weight on y, height on x, data points plotted)
options: true, false, false
skip 24/25 complete

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the scatter plot

The scatter plot is of weight vs height. We need to check if the heaviest (highest weight) person is also the tallest (highest height). From the plot, the highest weight (around 220) has a height of around 72 (or maybe a bit more, but let's check the tallest. The tallest height on the x - axis is around 76, and the weight at height 76 is not 220. Wait, actually, looking at the weight axis, the topmost point (heaviest) is at a height that's not the maximum height (the rightmost point on the x - axis). Wait, no, wait: the weight is on the y - axis. So the heaviest person is the one with the highest y - value (weight). Let's check the height (x - value) of that point. The x - axis goes from 60 to 76. The heaviest point (around y = 220) has an x - value (height) of around 72 (maybe 72 - 74). Now, the tallest person would be the one with the highest x - value (around 76). The weight at x = 76 is much lower than 220. Wait, but wait, maybe I misread. Wait, the question is: "According to the chart, the heaviest person is also the tallest person." Let's check the coordinates. The heaviest (max y) has a height (x) that is not the max x. Wait, no, maybe the tallest is the one with the largest x, and the heaviest is the one with the largest y. Let's see: the top - most point (heaviest) has an x (height) that is less than the right - most point (tallest). So the heaviest person is not the tallest. Wait, but wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the scatter plot: weight on y, height on x. So to check if heaviest (max y) is tallest (max x). Let's see the points: the highest y (weight) is at a certain x (height), and the highest x (height) has a y (weight) that's lower. So the statement "the heaviest person is also the tallest person" is False? Wait, no, wait, maybe the tallest is the one with the largest x, and the heaviest is the one with the largest y. Let's check the plot again. The x - axis (height) ranges from 60 to 76. The y - axis (weight) ranges from 100 to 220. The point with the highest y (around 220) is at x around 72 (maybe 72 - 74). The point with the highest x (around 76) has a y (weight) that's around 180 - 200? No, maybe lower. Wait, no, maybe the tallest is the one with the largest x, and the heaviest is the one with the largest y. So the heaviest (max y) has x (height) less than max x (tallest). So the statement is False? Wait, but wait, maybe I misread. Wait, the question is: "According to the chart, the heaviest person is also the tallest person." Let's see: the heaviest person (highest weight) – looking at the y - axis, the top point is at weight ~220, and its height (x) is around 72. The tallest person (highest height) is at x ~76, and its weight is lower than 220. So the heaviest is not the tallest. So the answer is False. Wait, but the options are True, False, False? Wait, the options are: True, False, False? Wait, the screenshot shows two "False" options? Maybe a typo, but the correct answer is False.

Answer:

False (the option with "False" text, as the heaviest person (max weight) does not have the maximum height (max x - value) in the scatter plot of weight vs height)
