Question

A group of students plotted the number of hours they worked weekly at a pizza place and the number of pizzas they delivered in a week.

Graph shows 0 to 60 on x and y axes at increments of 10. The label on the x axis is Weekly Hours Worked, and the label on the y axis is Number of Pizzas Delivered. Dots are made at the ordered pairs 10, 12 and 15, 18 and 18, 22 and 20, 32 and 23, 36 and 29, 39 and 36, 42 and 39, 46 and 43, 51 and 45, 47 and 48, 53 and 50, 55.
Which statement best describes the relationship between the number of hours spent working at the pizza place and the number of pizzas delivered? (1 point)

Greater hours worked, fewer pizzas delivered.

Greater hours worked, more pizzas delivered.

Fewer hours worked, more pizzas delivered.

There is no relationship between hours worked and the number of pizzas delivered.

Answer 1

The statement that best describes the relationship between the number of hours spent working at the pizza place and the number of pizzas delivered is: Greater hours worked, more pizzas delivered. This is based on the trend shown in the data points plotted on the graph, where as the number of hours worked increases, the number of pizzas delivered also tends to increase.
