Jeremiah had a lemonade stand. The table shows how much lemonade he sold versus the temperature of the day. Which scatterplot represents the data?

1 answer

The scatterplot that represents the data will have Temperature on the x-axis and Number of Cups of Lemonade on the y-axis. Each point on the scatterplot will represent the temperature and the corresponding number of cups of lemonade sold that day.

A scatterplot that fits this data is one where the points are scattered across the graph with no clear pattern or trend. The points are not in a straight line but are spread out.

Visually, the scatterplot will show a random distribution of points rather than a linear relationship.

It is not possible to draw the actual scatterplot here, but you can visualize it based on the description provided.
