To find out if two sets of data may be related, you can make a scatter plot of the data values in each set. A scatter plot has two number lines, called axes—one for each set of data values. Each point on the scatter plot represents a pair of data values. These points may appear to be scattered or may cluster in the shape of a line or a curve. Scatter plots Notes

Use the data to make a scatter plot. Describe the relationship between the data sets. Example 1: Making a Scatter Plot Type U.S. Only Rest of World Mammals Birds Reptiles Amphibians 10 8 Fishes Clams 61 2 Number of Endangered Species Step 1: Determine the scale and interval for each axis. Place the number of animals endangered in the U.S. on the horizontal axis and the number of animals endangered in the rest of the world on the vertical axis

Example 1 Continued Type U.S. Only Rest of World Mammals Birds Reptiles Amphibians 10 8 Fishes Clams 61 2 Number of Endangered Species Step 2: Plot a point for each pair of values Step 3: Label the axes and give the graph a title.

Example 2 Step 1: Determine the scale and interval for each axis. Place the year on the horizontal axis and the number of farm workers on the vertical axis ,000 8,000 6,000 4,000 2, , , , , , ,864 Number of farm workers in thousands Year Use the data to make a scatter plot. Describe the relationship between the data sets.

Example 2 Continued Step 2: Plot a point from each pair of values , , , , , ,864 Number of farm workers in thousands Year ,000 8,000 6,000 4,000 2,000 Step 3: Label the axes and give the graph a title.

There are three ways to describe data displayed in a scatter plot. Positive Correlation The values in both data sets increase at the same time. Negative Correlation The values in one data set increase as the values in the other set decrease. No Correlation The values in both data sets show no pattern.

Write positive correlation, negative correlation, or no correlation to describe each relationship. Explain. The number of vacation days is not related to height. So there would not be any correlation between these two variables. height and number of vacation days outdoor temperature and coat sales As the outdoor temperature increases, the number of coat sales will decrease. So there would be a negative correlation between the data sets. Example 3: Determining Relationships Between Two Sets of Data There would not be any correlation between these two variables. eye color and age

Lesson Quiz: Part I 1. Use the data to make a scatter plot. Describe the relationship. TemperatureAttendance The graph shows a positive correlation.

Lesson Quiz: Part II 2. Write positive, negative, or no correlation to describe each relationship. Explain negative correlation; as age increases, attendance decreases.
