Question

Suppose you were to create a scatter plot of the data for speed and distance traveled. Would you expect to see a positive, negative , or no relationship betwen the two variables. Explain your answer.

Answer 1

positive.
imagine it on a graph, the distance on the x axis and the speed on the y axis. so the higher the speed gets, going up the y axis, the farther distance you go on the x axis

Answer 2

Answer:

Positive

Step-by-step explanation:

A scatter plot for speed and distance is created.

We know that distance = speed x time

Hence when speed increases, distance increases and similarly when speed decreases, distance decreases.

Thus if we plot on x axis speed and y axis distance, we find that x increases when y increases.

So we find that there is a strong positive relationship between the two variables

D=tS

where D = distance S= speed and t = time.

Since D varies directly as speed, we have positive relationship.
