Scatter Plots and Trend Lines 9/17/2015 Heading TSWBAT: interpret and analyze scatter plots. Represent two numerical variables on a scatter plot and informally describe how the data points are distributed and any apparent relationship that exists between the two variables (e.g., between time spent on homework and grade level).

Notes Scatter Plot = a graph of points representing a collection of data. Correlation = describes a relationship between two data sets. Definitions Extrapolation = a prediction outside the range of our data. Interpolation = a prediction within the range of our data.

Notes a. Positive Correlation The graph has a pattern of __________ slope. As variable x ____________, variable y ___________. upward increases

Notes b. Negative Correlation The graph has a pattern of ____________ slope. As variable x ____________, variable y ___________. downward increases decreases

Notes c. No Correlation The graph has a pattern of _____ _____________. As variable x ____________, variable y _____________________. no correlation increases can not be predicted

Notes Look at the points (dots) on the graph, is there a correlation (pattern/trend)? correlation As hours spent online ____________, number of s sent __________. Ex1. The graph has a pattern of __________ slope. As variable x ____________, variable y ___________. upward increases Positive Correlation

Notes As the temperature outside ____________, the hours spent studying ___________. Ex2. The graph has a pattern of ____________ slope. As variable x ____________, variable y ___________. downward increases decreases increases decreases Negative Correlation Look at the points (dots) on the graph, is there a correlation (pattern/trend)?correlation

Notes As the age of someone ____________, the number of books read last year ____________________. Ex3. The graph has a pattern of ____ ____________. As variable x ____________, variable y ____________________. no increases can not be predicted increases can not be predicted. No Correlation Look at the points (dots) on the graph, is there a correlation (pattern/trend)?correlation

Summary If a scatter plot has an upward slope it has a _______ correlation. If it is downward it has a negative __________. If it is not upward or downward it has ___ correlation. positive correlationno
