Question

Analyzing Scatterplots
A graph shows day labeled 2 to 10 on the horizontal axis and miles on the vertical axis. A line decreases from 1 to 2, increases from 2 to 3, decreases from 3 to 5, increases from 5 to 8, decreases from 8 to 9, and increases from 9 to 10.

The scatterplot shows how many miles Marissa jogged over 10 days. Which statements are true? Check all that apply.

Marissa jogged 5 miles on the first day.
Marissa jogged 6 miles on the second day.
Marissa jogged 9 miles on the third day.
Marissa jogged 3 miles on the fourth day.
Marissa jogged 3 miles on the ninth day.

Answer 1

True:
- Marissa jogged 5 miles on the first day.
- Marissa jogged 3 miles on the fourth day.
- Marissa jogged 3 miles on the ninth day.

False:
- Marissa jogged 6 miles on the second day. (The plot shows 2nd day lower than 1st, not 6.)
- Marissa jogged 9 miles on the third day. (The plot shows the 3rd day at 6 miles, not 9.)
