This document discusses using scatter plots and lines of fit to analyze relationships between two variables. It defines key terms like bivariate data, scatter plot, correlation and line of fit. Examples are provided to illustrate investigating relationships with scatter plots, using lines of fit to make predictions, and applying linear interpolation or extrapolation. Practice problems guide the reader in creating scatter plots, determining correlations, writing equations for lines of fit and making predictions from such lines.

Investigate Relationship Using Scatter Plots
Bivariate data– data with two variables Scatter plot– shows the relationship between a set of data with two variables, graphed as ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. The relationship is known as a correlation or an association. 9.3 SCATTER PLOT AND LINE OF FIT

Real-World Example 1: Evaluate a Correlation
WAGES Determine whether the graph shows a positive, negative or no correlation. If there is a positive or negative correlation, describe its meaning in the situation. 9.3 SCATTER PLOT AND LINE OF FIT
Practice 1: 1. Refer to the graph on annual attendance at the Houston Livestock Show and Rode in Example 3. Determine whether the graph shows a positive, negative, or no correlation. If there is a positive or negative or no correlation, describe its meaning. 9.3 SCATTER PLOT AND LINE OF FIT
