To construct a scatter plot based on the data in the table, we need to plot the age (x-axis) and the corresponding time (y-axis) for each runner.
Looking at the given table, we have the following data points:
Age Time
24 32.75
29 33.63
34 34.84
39 35.33
44 35.23
49 36.16
To draw the scatter plot, we will use a coordinate plane. The x-axis represents the age in years, and the y-axis represents the time in minutes.
The options provided describe different coordinate planes, so let's go through each one and determine which one matches the given data points.
Option 1: The first image describes a coordinate plane with ages ranging from 0 to 40 and times ranging from 0 to 50. The approximate data points mentioned in the option (33, 24), (34, 29), (35, 34), (35, 39), (35, 44), and (36, 49) match the data given in the table. Therefore, option 1 is the correct scatter plot for the data.
Option 2: The second image describes a coordinate plane with ages ranging from 0 to 40 and times ranging from 0 to 40. The approximate data points mentioned in the option (24, 33), (29, 33.5), (34, 35), (39, 35.5), (44, 35.5), and (49, 36) do not match the data given in the table.
Option 3: The third image describes a coordinate plane with ages ranging from 0 to 40 and times ranging from 0 to 40 as well, but the mentioned data points (22, 32.5), (32, 33.5), (34, 34.5), (42, 35), (44, 35), and (49, 36) do not match the data given in the table.
Therefore, the correct scatter plot is option 1.
