construct scatterplots and comment on the association between the 2 numerical variables in terms of strength, direction and linearity
Elaborations
- AC9M10ST03_E1 - discussing the difference between association and cause and effect, and relating this to situations such as health, diversity of species and climate control
- AC9M10ST03_E2 - using statistical evidence to make, justify and critique claims about association between variables, such as in contexts of climate change, migration, online shopping and social media
- AC9M10ST03_E3 - informally using a line of good fit by eye to discuss reliability of any predictions
- AC9M10ST03_E4 - investigating the relationship between \(2\) variables of spear throwers used by First Peoples of Australia by using data to construct scatterplots, make comparisons and draw conclusions
Achievement Standard Components
- ASMAT1012 - They plan and conduct statistical investigations involving bivariate data.
- ASMAT1013 - Students represent the distribution of data involving 2 variables, using tables and scatter plots, and comment on possible association.
- ASMAT1015 - Students compare the distribution of continuous numerical data using various displays, and discuss distributions in terms of centre, spread, shape and outliers.
