Question

The table shows a list of the weights and prices of some turkeys at different supermarkets. Complete parts a through f. Weight left parenthesis pounds right parenthesis Price 12.5 ​$17.06 18.5 ​$23.83 20.1 ​$26.76 16.5 ​$19.87 15.8 ​$23.31 10.3 ​$9.15 a. Make a scatterplot with weight on the​ x-axis and cost on the​ y-axis. Choose the correct graph below. A. 10 26 8 32 Weight (pounds) Price (dollars) A scatterplot with a horizontal axis labeled “Weight (pounds)” from 10 to 26 in intervals of 2 and a vertical axis labeled “Price (dollars)” from 8 to 32 in intervals of 2 contains the following 6 plotted points: (10.5, 24); (12.5, 23.5); (16, 17); (16.5, 20); (18.5, 9); (20, 27). The points have no clearly visible pattern. All coordinates are approximate. B. 10 26 8 32 Weight (pounds) Price (dollars) A scatterplot with a horizontal axis labeled “Weight (pounds)” from 10 to 26 in intervals of 2 and a vertical axis labeled “Price (dollars)” from 8 to 32 in intervals of 2 contains the following 6 plotted points: (10.5, 17); (12.5, 9); (16, 24); (16.5, 27); (18.5, 23.5); (20, 20). The points have no clearly visible pattern. All coordinates are approximate. C. 10 26 8 32 Weight (pounds) Price (dollars)

Answer 1

Weight	Cost
12.5	17.06
18.5	23.83
20.1	26.76
16.5	19.87
15.8	23.31
10.3	9.15

For the given data set. The association between the weight and price of turkey is analyzed graphically by constructing the scatter plot.

The scatter plot for the data set is obtained in excel. The screenshot is shown below,

The scatter plot shows a positive correlation between weights and prices of turkeys which suggest that larger the size of turkey, the price will be higher.
