A coordinate plane is titled: Number of Laps Swam. It shows day on the x-axis from 0 to 7 in increments of 1. It shows number of laps on the y-axis from 0 to 20 in increments of 1.
The approximate data points are as follows: left parenthesis 1 comma 18 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 2 comma 21 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 3 comma 14 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 4 comma 15 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 5 comma 11 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 6 comma 15 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 7 comma 9 right parenthesis.

Answer 1

To find the scatterplot that correctly represents the data from the table, we need to analyze the data points.

The data points from the table are:

• Day 1: 18 laps
• Day 2: 12 laps
• Day 3: 10 laps
• Day 4: 15 laps
• Day 5: 13 laps
• Day 6: 20 laps
• Day 7: 9 laps

From these values, the correct coordinate points are:

• (1, 18)
• (2, 12)
• (3, 10)
• (4, 15)
• (5, 13)
• (6, 20)
• (7, 9)

Now, we can analyze the responses:

1. The first response has incorrect points (2, 21) and (3, 14).
2. The second response has the correct points.
3. The third response has (3, 8), which is incorrect.
4. The fourth response has (3, 8) and (6, 14), both of which are incorrect.

Therefore, the correct scatterplot that represents the data is the second response, which has the coordinates matching the data points accurately.
