Which display is best to determine the relationship between the number of hours worked and the amount of money paid?

Why couldn’t you have just said line graph. That’s the first thing that pops up when you click on the link. But thanks anyways I was have trouble with this question.

1. histogram with intervals of 5

2. histogram with intervals of 3
3. line plot
4. line graph

these are the multiple choice answers

i think it’s histogram with intervals of 5 ...ms sue am i right?

To determine the relationship between the number of hours worked and the amount of money paid, one commonly used display is a scatter plot. A scatter plot is a graphical representation of data points on a coordinate system, with the horizontal axis representing the number of hours worked and the vertical axis representing the amount of money paid.

To create this display, follow these steps:

1. Collect your data: Gather information on the number of hours worked and the corresponding amount of money paid for each observation.

2. Organize your data: Create a table with two columns, one for the hours worked and the other for the amount of money paid. List each observation in the appropriate row.

3. Determine the scale: Determine an appropriate scale for both axes. Make sure to include all data points within the display.

4. Plot the data points: For each observation, locate the corresponding number of hours worked on the horizontal axis and the amount of money paid on the vertical axis. Mark a point at the intersection of these values.

5. Connect the dots (optional): If you have a large number of data points or there is a general trend in the relationship, consider adding a line or curve that connects the data points.

6. Add labels and title: Label each axis with descriptive titles and add a title for the entire display.

Once you have created the scatter plot, you can visually analyze the pattern of the data points. If there is a positive relationship between the number of hours worked and the amount of money paid, you would expect to see the data points generally increasing as you move from left to right on the plot. If there is a negative relationship, the data points would generally decrease. If there is no clear pattern, it suggests no relationship between the variables.

thank you Ms.sue your a life saver.
