Use the given data to make a scatter plot of the weight and height of each member of a basketball team. The points on the scatter plot are (71, 170), (68, 160), (70, 175), (73, 180), and (74, 190). Use the given data to make a scatter plot of the weight and height of each member of a soccer team. 120 62 135 68 175 69 156 67 125 63 Weight (lbs) Height (in) 200 190 180 170 160 150 140 130 120 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 The points on the scatter plot are (63, 125), (67, 156), (69, 175), (68, 135), and (62, 120). Height Weight Correlation describes the type of relationship between two data sets. The line of best fit is the line that comes closest to all the points on a scatter plot. One way to estimate the line of best fit is to lay a ruler’s edge over the graph and adjust it until it looks closest to all the points. Positive correlation; both data sets increase together. Negative correlation; as one data set increases, the other decreases. No correlation; as one data set increases, the other decreases. A. The size of a jar of baby food and the number of jars of baby food a baby will eat. Negative correlation: The more food in each jar, the fewer number of jars of baby food a baby will eat. Do the data sets have a positive, a negative, or no correlation?. Do the data sets have a positive, a negative, or no correlation?. B. The speed of a runner and the numbe
