Solution Summary: The author illustrates how the data recorded in the table is linear. The linear function is y=12.1x+166.
Definition Definition Representation of the direction and degree of correlation in graphical form. The grouping of points that are plotted makes it a scatter diagram. A line can be drawn showing the relationship based on the direction of points and their distance from each other.
