suppose you were to create a scatter plot of the data for speed and distance traveled. would you expect to see a positive, negative , or no relationship between the two variables. explain your answer.

a)negative relationship; as the speed decreases, the distance increases.

b)positive relationship; as the speed decreases, the distance increases.

c)positive relationship; as the speed increases, the distance increases.

d)no relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

Choice C is the one that makes sense, because a positive relationship happens when the independent variable increases and the dependent variable also increases.

In this case, the speed is the dependent variable and the distance is the independent variable.

On the other hand, it doesn't make sense that as the speed decreases, the distance increases, because the distance and the speed are directly proportional, that is, if one increases the other one also increases.

So, this directly proportional relationship is described choice C, which is a positive relationship, because as the speed increases, the distance also increases.
