4 Ex 1: Draw a scatterplot and describe the relationship (if any) Monitor Size (inches) Price 17in $99 19in $149 32in $219 27in $189

5 Ex 2: Use a scatterplot to make predictions 1.) How many miles/gallon does a car that weighs 2800lbs get? 2.) How much does a car that gets 20mpg typically weigh? 3.) How many miles per gallon would a car that weighs 1 ton get? 4.) How much would a car that gets 25mpg weigh? 5.) Describe the relationship between weight of a car and gas mileage. Weight Miles per gallon
