Scatter Graphs Hours of sunshine Scatter graphs are used to show whethere is a relationship between two sets of data. Temperature (o. C)
Scatter Graphs The relationship between the data can be described as either: 1. A positive correlation. As one quantity increases so does the other. 2. A negative correlation. As one quantity increases the other decreases. Weight Positive Correlation Shoe Size Height Car Value 3. No correlation. Both quantities vary with no clear relationship. Age of Car Negative correlation Annual Income No correlation
A positive or negative correlation is represented by a straight line with a positive/negative gradient. The strength of the correlation depends on the spread of points around the imagined line. Strong Positive Weak Positive Strong negative Weak negative

Drawing a Line of Best Fit A line of best fit can be drawn to data that shows a correlation. The stronger the correlation between the data, the easier it is to draw the line. The line can be drawn by eye and should have roughly the same number of data points on either side. Lobf Note: Your line does NOT have to start at the origin (0, 0)
