Question

The following data give the percentage of women working in five companies in the retail and trade industry. The percentage of management jobs held by women in each company is also shown.

% Working	67	45	73	54	61
% Management	50	23	63	47	34

(a)

Develop a scatter diagram for these data with the percentage of women working in the company as the independent variable.

A scatter diagram has 5 points plotted on it. The horizontal axis ranges from 40 to 75 and is labeled: % Working. The vertical axis ranges from 0 to 70 and is labeled: % Management. The first three points are plotted from left to right in an downward, diagonal direction starting in the upper left corner of the diagram. The fourth point extends upward in a diagonal direction to the right. The last point then extends downward from the fourth point in a diagonal direction to the right. The points are between 23 to 63 on the vertical axis.

The first two points are plotted from left to right in an upward, diagonal direction starting in the lower left corner of the diagram. Moving to the right, the third point extends downward in a diagonal direction. The last 2 points then extend upward from the third point in a diagonal direction to the right. The points are between 23 to 63 on the vertical axis.

(b)

What does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the relationship between the two variables?

There appears to be a positive linear relationship between the percentage of women working in the five companies and the percentage of management jobs held by women in each company.There appears to be a negative linear relationship between the percentage of women working in the five companies and the percentage of management jobs held by women in each company. There appears to be no noticeable relationship between the percentage of women working in the five companies and the percentage of management jobs held by women in each company.
