Question

which statement best describes the relationship on the scatterplot? a. strong positive relationship b. strong negative relationship c. weak positive relationship d. weak negative relationship e. no relationship

Explanation:

Step1: Observe the scatter - plot trend

As age increases from 12 to 19, shoe size generally increases from around 7 to around 12.

Step2: Determine the strength of the relationship

The points follow a relatively clear upward - sloping pattern, indicating a strong relationship. Since both variables (age and shoe size) increase together, it is a positive relationship.

Answer:

A. strong positive relationship
