Maha carries out a survey of 15 learners in her class.

She asks the learners how many hours a week they


spend reading, and what they scored in a recent spelling test (out of 20).
The table shows the results of her survey.

a. Draw a scatter graph to show this data. Draw each axis with a scale from 0 to 25. Take the horizontal
axis as 'Hours reading' and the vertical axis as 'Spelling test score'.

b. Does the scatter graph show positive or negative correlation? Explain your answer.

c. Draw a line of best fit on your graph and describe the strength of the correlation.

d. Maha reads for 12 hours a week. Use your line of best fit to estimate her score in the spelling test.

e. Sam reads for 25 hours a week. Is it possible to estimate his score in the spelling test? Explain your
answer.
The table shows the number of packets of cookies and the number of packets of oranges sold by a grocery
store each day over a period of 10 days.

a. Draw a scatter graph to show this data. Take the horizontal axis as 'Number of packets of cookies sold'
with a scale from 0 to 30. Take the vertical axis as 'Number of packets of oranges sold' with a scale from 0
to 30.

b. What type of correlation does the scatter graph show? Explain your answer.

The table shows the math and drama exam results of 15 learners.
The results for both subjects are given as percentages.

a. Without looking at the values in the table, do you think there will be positive, negative, or no correlation
between the math and drama exam results of the learners? Explain your answer.
b. Draw a scatter graph to show this data. Draw each axis with a scale from 0 to 100. Take the horizontal
axis as 'Math’s result' and the vertical axis as 'Drama result'.
c. What type and strength of correlation does the scatter graph show? Explain your answer.
d. Was your conjecture in part a correct?
e. Draw a line of best fit on your graph.
f. Use your line of best fit to estimate the drama exam result of a learner who scored 50% in their math
exam.
g. Can you use the line of best fit to estimate the math result of a learner who scored 10% in their drama
exam? Explain your answer.
