    The correct option is 2.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The given table shows the air pressure in pounds per square inch at different altitudes in thousand feet.

    Altitude : 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45

    Air pressure: 12.4 10.2 7 6.2 5.2 4.2 3.4 2.6 2.0

    In the graph altitude is represented on the x-axis and the air pressure is represented on y-axis.

    From the above table the ordered pairs are (5,12.4), (10,10.2), (15,7), (20,6.2), (25,5.2), (30,4.2), (35,3.4), (40,2.6) and (45,2).

    The best representation of the data is represented by the scatter plot in option 2.

    Therefore option 2 is correct.
