so whats the answer?

The answer is D. Scatter plot.

Use the excerpt from the Platt Amendment to answer the question.

The excerpt is representative of which of the following post-Civil War American movements? Explain

A. U.S. intervention in Latin American politics and policies
B. U.S. establishment of friendly leaders in foreign countries
C. U.S. creation of laws concerning Latin American countries
D. U.S. sanctions against countries that have fought against it

The excerpt from the Platt Amendment represents the post-Civil War American movement of U.S. intervention in Latin American politics and policies. The amendment gave the United States the right to intervene in Cuban affairs, control its foreign policy, and establish military bases on its territory. This type of interventionism was a common practice in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th century, as part of the country's broader foreign policy objectives of promoting its economic and political interests in the Western Hemisphere. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

The correct answer is B. scatter plot

The points shown are approximately:
(1, 8.6)
(2, 7.3)
(4, 6.4)
(5.5, 5.55)
(6, 2.9)
(7, 7.3)
(7, 5)
(8.5, 4.25)
(9.5, 3.65)

To graph the data in a scatter plot, you will follow these steps:

1. Create a coordinate grid on a piece of graph paper or using a graphing software.
2. Label the x-axis and y-axis with the variables you have, in this case, "x" and "y" respectively.
3. On the x-axis, mark the values 1, 2, 4, 5.5, 6, 7, 7, 8.5, and 9.5.
4. On the y-axis, mark the values 8.6, 7.3, 6.4, 5.55, 2.9, 7.3, 5, 4.25, and 3.65.
5. Plot the points for each pair of (x, y) values.
6. Connect the dots to represent the relationship between the variables.

Based on the given options, the correct answer for this specific set of data would be (C) scatter plot. The points shown are approximately (1, 8.5), (1.5, 7.5), (4, 6.5), (4.5, 5.5), (6, 3), (7, 5), (7, 7.5), (8.5, 4.5), and (9.5, 4).

Therefore, select option (C) scatter plot as the correct answer.
