Question 1
Which statement accurately describes the data's form, direction, and
strength from the scatterplot below?
Question 2
Raoul lives in Minneapolis and he is planning his spring break trip. He creates the
scatterplot below to assess how much his trip will cost.
Which answer choice correctly indicates the explanatory and response
variables for the scatterplot?
Question 3
Brad reads a scatterplot that displays the relationship between the number
of cars owned per household and the average number of citizens who have
health insurance in neighborhoods across the country. The plot shows a
strong positive correlation.
Brad recalls that correlation does not imply causation. In this example, Brad

members of his community to purchase health insurance.
Identify the lurking variable that is causing an increase in both the number of
cars owned and the average number of citizens with health insurance.
