Use the table to answer the question.
Times of Runners by Age
Age Time
24 32.75
29 33.63
34 34.84
39 35.33
44 35.23
49 36.16
A group of students was evaluating the average times of groups of runners for a 5K marathon. Construct the scatterplot based on the data in the table.
To construct a scatterplot based on the data in the table, plot each data point with the Age on the x-axis and Time on the y-axis.
Here is how the scatterplot would look:
Age (x-axis) Time (y-axis)
24 32.75
29 33.63
34 34.84
39 35.33
44 35.23
49 36.16
(24, 32.75)
(29, 33.63)
(34, 34.84)
(39, 35.33)
(44, 35.23)
(49, 36.16)
Now, plot these points on a graph with Age on the x-axis and Time on the y-axis. Connect the points with a line to show the trend of the data points. This will give you a scatterplot representing the average times of groups of runners for a 5K marathon.
