1. The table shows the number of soccer clubs and the population densities of different cities in a state.
City Pop. per square mile Clubs
1 160 6
2 173 8
3 254 7
4 284 11
5 315 9
6 322 10
7 459 14
8 487 20
Based on this information, which statement is true?
A. There is a strong correlation between two variables, and an increase in population density is likely associated with a larger number of soccer clubs.
B.There is a strong correlation between the two variables, and an increase in population density is unlikely to be associated with a larger number of soccer clubs.
C. There is a weak correlation between the two variables, but it is likely that an increase in population density is associated with a larger number of soccer clubs.
D. There is a weak correlation between the two variables, and it is unlikely that an increase in population density is associated with a larger number of soccer clubs.
2. Function Q and function R are both linear functions. Function Q has an x-intercept at (4,0), and the slope is 1/4. Function R is represented by the table.
x y
-4 14

B. Function Q has a larger y-intercept and a steeper slope than function R
C. Function Q has a smaller y-intercept and a less steep slope than function R
D. Function Q has a smaller y-intercept and a steeper slope than function R
