5-1 Scatter Plots
The interactive below provides an opportunity for you to experiment with creating a scatter plot. Drag the red points or enter values into the table on the right to create your scatter plot. In a real scatter plot, your axes would have titles and your data would represent something in the real world. Try making some plots that represent real world situations. For example, what would you expect a plot to look like that showed age on the x-axis and height on the y-axis?
