A graph showing the relationship between a particular independent variable and a dependent variable
A statistical diagram that shows the relation between two variables Data points are plotted onto a graph to display the spread of scores
A scatter plot is a three dimensional histogram It can be explained on the example of an image where the intensity of each pixel is shown in the vertial direction Scatter plots can be visualized by e g dark scale images, LEGO plots, surface plots
A graphical representation of data involving two (or sometimes more) variables, in which each data point is plotted in a coordinate plane, with one variable labeled along the horizontal axis, the other along the vertical axis See Plotting Data (Part 9 of the Maple Tutorial) for information on creating scatter plots with Maple
An interval recording method where data are recorded during specific time or activity periods
A graph of a correlational relationship
A graphing of data points in which each point represents the simultaneous value of two variables A scatterplot usually has the independent or explanatory variable on the x-axis and the dependent or outcome variable on the y-axis Scatter plots are often used to show relationships between levels of two variables
If each item in a sample yields two measurements, such as the height x and weight y of the individual chosen, the point with coordinates (x,y) is plotted If this is repeated for all members of the sample, the resulting collection of points is a scatter plot

scatterplot
A type of data plot in which data are represented as dots related to a two-dimensional axis In a simple scatterplot values are displayed along two axes Values of the dependant variable are arrayed along the vertical (y) axis; values of the independent variable along the horizontal (x) axis A dot 6 units above 0 on the y axis might represent a household with six cars If that household had an income of $80,000 the dot and each tick mark along the x axis represented $ 10,000 the dot would be 8 tick marks from the intercept of the x and y axes at the bottom left of the scatterplot
