To determine which scatterplot shows a linear association, we need to look for a pattern where the points appear to fall along a straight line.

Looking at the scatterplots:

Scatterplot 1:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 550 800 250 300 700 1000 650 300 100 700

Scatterplot 2:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 550 800 250 300 700 1000 650 300 100 700

Scatterplot 3:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 550 800 350 450 700 1000 900 250 400 750

Scatterplot 4:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 550 800 350 450 700 1000 900 250 400 750

Scatterplot 5:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 550 800 250 500 500 400 650 150 400 750

Scatterplots 1 and 2 have identical data, so they will show the same linear association. Similarly, scatterplots 3 and 4 have identical data, and scatterplot 5 has different data.

Therefore, scatterplots 1 and 2 show a linear association.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's focus on the four scatterplots provided:

Scatterplot 1:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 550 800 250 300 700 1000 650 300 100 700

Scatterplot 2:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 550 800 350 450 700 1000 900 250 400 750

Scatterplot 3:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 800 700 350 450 500 1000 900 250 400 750

Scatterplot 4:
x: 5 8 2 4 6 12 10 1 3 7
y: 550 800 250 500 500 400 650 150 400 750

After examining these scatterplots, it appears that Scatterplot 3 exhibits a linear association. The points on this scatterplot seem to align along a relatively straight line, suggesting a strong linear correlation between x and y.
