Sarah described the following situation:
When more apples grew in the backyard, the pet cat stayed indoors for a longer time.
Which of the following best describes the situation?
This is an example of correlation because there is an obvious relationship between the two scenarios.
This is an example of causation because apples cause cats to stay indoors.
This is an example of correlation because apples cause cats to stay indoors.
This is an example of causation because cats dislike apples.
This is an example of correlation because there is an obvious relationship between the two scenarios.
The following tree heights were recorded on a school campus:
61, 72, 84, 88, 77, 67, 76, 79, 63, 79, 69, 70, 86, 78, 82, 82, 80, 73, 87, 90, 73, 76, 79, 71, 75, 79, 76, 83, 84, 87, 72, 81, 89, 74, 77, 78, 81, 84
A science teacher wants to choose a data display that will highlight every height. Which display will present the information in this way?
Box plot
Circle graph
Histogram
Line plot
A line plot will present the information in a way that highlights every height.
The display summarizes grades on a World History exam.
A vertical box plot is titled world history exams, with a minimum of 54, a maximum of 94, a lower quartile of 70, a median of 83, and an upper quartile of 88.
Which of the following describes the data set?
The data is univariate and categorical.
The data is univariate and numerical.
The data is bivariate and categorical.
The data is bivariate and numerical.
The data is univariate and numerical.
The scatter plot shows the number of animal cells Clara examined in a laboratory in different months:
plot ordered pairs 1, 20 and 2, 60 and 3,100 and 4, 140 and 5, 180
What is the approximate predicted number of animal cells Clara examined in the 9th month?
280
290
340
380
Based on the given ordered pairs, we can see that the number of animal cells Clara examined is increasing at a consistent rate. The approximate rate of increase is 40 (20, 60, 100, 140).
To predict the number of animal cells Clara examined in the 9th month, we can extend the pattern of the rate of increase.
The 9th month is 4 months after the 5th month. So, we can add 4 times the rate of increase (40) to the last observed value (180).
Approximate predicted number of animal cells = 180 + (4 * 40) = 320
Therefore, the approximate predicted number of animal cells Clara examined in the 9th month is 320.
