A coordinate plane is titled: Number of Laps Swam. It shows day on the x-axis from 0 to 7 in increments of 1. It shows number of laps on the y-axis from 0 to 20 in increments of 1. The approximate data points are as follows: left parenthesis 1 comma 18 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 2 comma 21 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 3 comma 14 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 4 comma 15 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 5 comma 11 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 6 comma 15 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 7 comma 9 right parenthesis.

A scatterplot shows the number of hours studied versus test grade. The horizontal axis shows the number of hours studied, ranging from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. The vertical axis shows the test grade, ranging from 0 to 100 in increments of 5, starting with a jump from 0 to 35. A kink is shown on the vertical axis close to origin. A dot is plotted at 0.5 on the horizontal axis and 45 on the vertical axis. A loosely packed cluster of data plots is plotted between 1 to 4.5 on the horizontal axis and 77 and 98 on the vertical axis.

A scatterplot shows height versus weight. The horizontal axis shows height, in inches, ranging from 0 to 70 in increments of 5, starting with a jump from 0 to 50. The vertical axis shows the weight, in pounds, ranging from 0 to 160 in increments of 5, starting with a jump from 0 to 90. A kink is shown on both horizontal and vertical axis close to origin. A dot is plotted at 61 in the horizontal axis and 95 on the vertical axis, and also 60 on the horizontal axis and 154 on the vertical axis. A loosely packed cluster of data plots is plotted between 60 to 64 on the horizontal axis and 115 and 135 on the vertical axis.

The correct scatterplot representation of the data for the number of laps swam each day is the one described as follows:

A coordinate plane is titled: Number of Laps Swam. It shows day on the x-axis from 0 to 7 in increments of 1. It shows number of laps on the y-axis from 0 to 20 in increments of 1. The approximate data points are as follows: (1, 18), (2, 12), (3, 10), (4, 15), (5, 13), (6, 20), and (7, 9).
