To determine which scatterplot shows an exponential relationship, look for a graph where the points suggest that as the x-values increase, the y-values increase exponentially (i.e., they rise sharply after a certain point rather than just increasing linearly).

Without seeing the actual scatterplots, I'd suggest the following:

  • An exponential relationship typically shows a curve that rises steeply, particularly for larger x-values.
  • If one of the scatterplots shows a steep increase after a certain x-value, that would most likely be the scatterplot representing an exponential relationship.

If you have a specific label or description for each scatterplot (A, B, C, or D), please provide that information and I can help you assess which one might represent an exponential relationship based on typical characteristics!
