How Do You Make a Scatter Plot?

Make a scatter plot of the following table.

Summary

  1. A scatter plot is a graph that shows how two sets of data relate.
  2. An ordered pair is a pair of numbers that locate a point on the coordinate plane, written (x,y), such as (1,2).
  3. The coordinate axes are the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) axes in the coordinate plane.
  4. We graph points using their x and y values to determine their location on the coordinate plane.

Notes

    1. The coordinate axes are the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) axes in the coordinate plane.
    2. Our horizontal marks increase by 1 unit, while our vertical marks increase by 2 units.
