📌 Understanding Scatter Plots
A scatter plot is a type of data visualization that uses dots to represent the values of two different variables.
- **X-Axis Values:** Represent independent variables.
- **Y-Axis Values:** Represent dependent variables.
📌 Examples of Scatter Plots
X Values | Y Values |
---|---|
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 | 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 |
10, 20, 30, 40 | 8, 16, 24, 32 |
50, 60, 70, 80 | 100, 120, 140, 160 |
🔧 Practical Applications of Scatter Plots
1. Data Analysis: Scatter plots help identify correlations between two numerical variables.
2. Scientific Research: Used to analyze relationships between experimental variables.
3. Market Trends: Helps businesses understand relationships between price and sales volume.
