Question

describe the correlation in the scatter plot below.
answer attempt 1 out of 2
the scatter plot shows correlation because as the
plotted values of $x$ increase, the values of $y$ generally

Explanation:

Most data points follow a trend where as x increases, y also increases, with one outlier that does not change the overall positive direction of the relationship. The upward trend is moderate as the points are somewhat clustered but not tightly aligned.

Answer:

The scatter plot shows a positive (moderate) correlation because as the plotted values of $x$ increase, the values of $y$ generally increase (with one outlier that does not override the overall trend).
