Clarence visited a wildlife habitat with his family. He was curious about the correlation between the weight of the animals and the quantity of food they typically consume in one day. He recorded information about five different animals at the habitat and made this scatterplot comparing them.

If the five animals displayed in the graph consume a total of 599 pounds of food per day, what is an appropriate label for the graph's horizontal axis?

1 answer

An appropriate label for the graph's horizontal axis would be "Weight of Animals (pounds)." This label indicates that the horizontal axis represents the weight of the animals, which helps to analyze the correlation between the weight and the quantity of food they consume.
