To determine which scatterplot shows a non-linear association, we need to create scatterplots for each set of data.
A. Scatterplot:
The scatterplot for A would show a linear association because there is a clear pattern that forms a line.
B. Scatterplot:
The scatterplot for B would show a linear association because there is a clear pattern that forms a line.
C. Scatterplot:
The scatterplot for C would show a non-linear association because there is no clear pattern that forms a line.
D. Scatterplot:
The scatterplot for D would show a non-linear association because there is no clear pattern that forms a line.
Therefore, the scatterplots for C and D show a non-linear association.
Use the tables to create scatterplots and determine which scatterplot shows a non-linear association.(1 point)

C OR D?
Sorry about that. The scatterplot for C would show a non-linear association because there is no clear pattern that forms a line.
