Question

The following table shows the scores of 5 students on their Science and Social Studies tests out of 100.

Draw a scatter plot from the above data.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

We will represent the Science marks on the $x-$axis and the Social Studies marks on the $y-$axis.


Based on the above data, Science marks are 30 and Social Studies marks are 70 so we have to move 30 units along the x-axis and 70 units along the y-axis, then mark the point, as shown below:


Similarly, we will mark all the given points on the graph according to the table.


Hence, option (c.) is the correct choice.
