To determine which scatterplot shows a linear association, we need to create scatterplots for each set of data and look for a pattern that resembles a straight line.
Based on the given data, the scatterplot that shows a linear association is the scatterplot with the following data:
x: 5.0, 4.6, 5.9, 7.8, 6.4, 6.8, 5.3, 7.2
y: 9.5, 9.0, 11.0, 13.0, 11.5, 12.0, 10.0, 12.5
By creating a scatterplot with these points, we may observe a pattern that is closest to a straight line compared to the other scatterplots provided.
