Sample Response: The data seem to cluster about a curve, so there is an association. The association is nonlinear because the cluster is about a curve. It is a strong association because the points are close to the curve. Which did you include in your response? Check all that apply. There is a cluster of data.The cluster is about a curve.The association is nonlinear.The association is strong.

A
There is a cluster of data.
B
The cluster is about a curve.
C
The association is nonlinear.
D
The association is strong.

What type of association and correlation are shown by the scatterplot?

Question illustration
A

B
linear association, negative correlation
C
nonlinear association, strong correlation
D
nonlinear association, weak correlation

A scatterplot has a positive, linear correlation. Which statement is true about the relationship between the x- and y-values?

A
As the x-values increase, the y-values tend to increase.
B
As the x-values increase, the y-values tend to decrease.
C
As the x-values decrease, the y-values tend to increase.
D
As the x-values decrease, the y-values tend to vary randomly.
33

Option A
B
On a graph, points are grouped closely together to form a line and increase.
Option B
C
On a graph, points are grouped closely together and decrease.

Adele and Monte are discussing graphs with negative correlation. Adele claims that only graph B has negative correlation. Monte claims that both scatterplots have a negative correlation. Graph A Graph B Which statement it true regarding their claims?

Question illustration
A
Adele is correct because only lines may have a negative slope.
B
Adele is correct because the y values increase as the x values decrease in graph A, so it shows a positive correlation.
C
Monte is correct because both graphs show a strong correlation.
D
Monte is correct because in both scatterplots, the y values decrease as the x values increase so both have a negative correlation.
35

Alya claims that the scatterplot shows a linear correlation. Enrique claims that the scatterplot has no correlation. Which statement about their claims is true?

Question illustration
A
Alya is correct because the scatterplot clusters about a line with a slope of zero.
B
Alya is correct because as the x-values increase, the y-values remain the same.
C
Enrique is correct because the scatterplot clusters about a curve.
D
Enrique is correct because as the x-values increase, the change has no effect on the y-values.
36

B
As the x-values increase, the y-values tend to decrease.
C
As the x-values decrease, the y-values tend to decrease.
D
As the x-values decrease, the y-values tend to vary randomly.
