A coordinate plane is titled: Number of Cups of Lemonade Sold versus Temperature. It shows number of cups on the x-axis from 0 to 100 in increments of 5 and temperature in degrees Fahrenheit on the y-axis from 0 to 45 in increments of 5.
The approximate data points are as follows: left parenthesis 65 comma 8 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 68 comma 10 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 72 comma 18 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 75 comma 18 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 78 comma 15 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 79 comma 22 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 81 comma 26 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 89 comma 32 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 95 comma 35 right parenthesis.

To determine which scatterplot represents the data from the table showing the relationship between the number of cups of lemonade sold and the temperature of the day, we need to compare the provided options with the actual data points.

Here are the data points extracted from the table:

  • (78, 15)
  • (95, 35)
  • (79, 22)
  • (72, 15)
  • (65, 10)
  • (82, 26)
  • (68, 10)
  • (75, 18)
  • (89, 34)

Now, let’s look for a scatterplot that correctly represents these points.

  1. The first scatter plot includes points like (65, 8), (68, 10), (72, 18), etc. This does not match our data accurately.
  2. The second scatter plot has points such as (65, 8), (68, 10), and (81, 30), which are also not aligned with the table.
  3. The third scatter plot contains (65, 8), (68, 10), and has an incorrect point (75, 35) instead of the correct number of cups for that temperature.
  4. The fourth scatter plot seems to be the most accurate one, showcasing points (65, 10), (68, 10), (72, 15), (75, 18), (78, 15), (79, 22), (82, 26), (89, 34), and (95, 35), which closely represent the data from the table.

Therefore, the correct scatterplot is the fourth option.
