To create a scatterplot based on the provided table, we can consider the relationship between height and arm span.

  1. Label the Axes:

    • The x-axis (independent variable) will represent Height (inches).
    • The y-axis (dependent variable) will represent Arm Span (inches).
  2. Plot the Ordered Pairs: The ordered pairs based on the data given are as follows:

    • (30, 27)
    • (46, 45)
    • (49, 47)
    • (63, 63)
    • (67, 69)
    • (73, 71)

    These pairs represent the (Height, Arm Span) values from the table.

From the table:

  • The ordered pair (30, 27) is found in the scatterplot.
  • The ordered pair (46, 45) is found in the scatterplot.
  • The ordered pair (49, 47) is found in the scatterplot.
  • The ordered pair (63, 63) is found in the scatterplot.
  • The ordered pair (67, 69) is found in the scatterplot.
  • The ordered pair (73, 71) is found in the scatterplot.

If needed, you can plot these points on graph paper or using graphing software to visualize the relationship between height and arm span.
