Problem 5BSC

Scatterplots. In Exercises 5–8, use the given paired data from Appendix B to construct a scatterplot.

President's Heights Refer to Data Set 12 in Appendix B, and use the heights of U.S. presidents and the heights of their main opponents in the election campaign. Does there appear to be a correlation?

Step-by-Step Solution:

Answer :

Step 1 of 1 :

The heights of U.S. presidents and the heights of their main opponents in the election campaign.

The data is given below.

President's Height (cm)	Height Opp (cm)
188
170	189
189	170
163
183
171	191
185	171
168	180
173	168
173	185
173	174
178	196
183	175
193	188
173
173	178
183	187
180	180
168	180
170	178
178	175
182	178
180	182
183	178
178	180
182	180
188	182
175	173
179	178
183	182
192	180
182	180
177	183
185	177
188	173
188	188
183	185
188	175

Now we have to draw a scatter plot.

Then the scatter plot is given below.

Because the points are scattered throughout with no obvious pattern, there does not appear to be a correlation.
