(a)
To calculate:To draw a scatter plot of the below given data:
(a)
Answer to Problem 1.7MPS
The Scatter Plot is:
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The table is:
Formula Used:
A scatter plot is a type of plot or mathematical diagram using Cartesian coordinates to display values for typically two variables for a set of data.
Calculation:
Given table is:
Plotting the above years and the corresponding number of medals:
Conclusion:
The Scatter Plot is:
(b)
To calculate:To draw a conclusion about the type of relationship the data show.
(b)
Answer to Problem 1.7MPS
The maximum number of medals received was in the year 1983 and over the years, the count of medals are reduced and there is no relationship between the consecutive years.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The table is:
Calculation:
From the sub-part(a), we have the scatter plot as:
From the above scatter plot,the maximum number of medals received was in the year 1983 and over the years, the count of medals are reduced and there is no relationship between the consecutive years.
Conclusion:
The maximum number of medals received was in the year 1983 and over the years, the count of medals are reduced and there is no relationship between the consecutive years.
(c)
To calculate:To determine if it is it possible to predict the number of medals that will be won in
(c)
Answer to Problem 1.7MPS
No, it is not possible to predict the number of medals that will be won in
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The table is:
Calculation:
From the sub-part(a), we have the scatter plot as:
Since, there is no relationship between the consecutive years, it is not possible to predict the number of medals that will be won in
Conclusion:
No, it is not possible to predict the number of medals that will be won in
