Question

what recommendation will you give the company? the filter is ready to sell to sell to the public because there is a strong association between the two variables, and the scores meet quality standards. start from scratch and redesign the filter. do not sell the filter to the public because there is a weak association and the scores do not meet quality standards. squeeze filter water quality test 2 (chart with water quality score on y - axis and gallons of water processed on x - axis)

Explanation:

To determine the recommendation, we analyze the scatter plot (Squeeze Filter Water Quality Test 2). The horizontal line at 80 represents the quality standard. Most data points (water quality scores) are at or above 80, and the association between gallons processed and water quality score appears stable (no strong decline below standard). So the filter meets quality standards and has a reasonable association, meaning it's ready to sell. The "start from scratch" option is incorrect as the filter performs adequately. The "do not sell" option is wrong because scores meet standards and the association is not weak (scores stay near or above 80 across gallons processed).

Answer:

The filter is ready to sell to the public because there is a strong association between the two variables, and the scores meet quality standards.
