Analyze the trend in women's finishers at the NYC Marathon from 1997 to 2001 using a scatter plot and describe any relationship.
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The table provides the number of women finishers for each year from1997 to2001.
. We are asked to make a scatter plot of the data.
3. We are also asked to describe any relationship we see in the data.
STEP 2
To make a scatter plot, we need to plot the years on the x-axis and the number of women finishers on the y-axis. Each point on the plot represents a year and the corresponding number of women finishers for that year.
STEP 3
Plot the point for the year1997. The x-coordinate is1997 and the y-coordinate is8413.
STEP 4
Plot the point for the year1998. The x-coordinate is1998 and the y-coordinate is8332.
STEP 5
Plot the point for the year1999. The x-coordinate is1999 and the y-coordinate is9160.
STEP 6
Plot the point for the year2000. The x-coordinate is2000 and the y-coordinate is8332.
STEP 7
Plot the point for the year2001. The x-coordinate is2001 and the y-coordinate is6853.
STEP 8
Now that we have plotted all the points, we can observe the scatter plot to see if there is any relationship between the years and the number of women finishers.
STEP 9
Looking at the scatter plot, we can see that there is no clear linear relationship between the years and the number of women finishers. The number of women finishers fluctuates from year to year.
