a. The relationship between independent variable A and dependent variable C and the relationship between independent variable B and dependent variable C can both be analyzed using the same scatterplot.

b. The relationship between independent variable A and dependent variable C, and the relationship between independent variable B and dependent variable C can both be analyzed, but they must be analyzed using separate scatterplots.

c. Only the relationship between independent variable A and dependent variable C can be analyzed using a scatterplot.

d. Only the relationship between independent variable B and dependent variable C can be analyzed using a scatterplot.

Guadalupe · Answer 1

The correct answer is B mainly because the independent variable A and the dependent variable C and independent variable B and dependent variable has two different solution and would have to be graphed on different scatterplots.

Brock Castillo · Answer 2

The correct answer is B. The relationship between independent variable A and dependent variable C, and the relationship between independent variable B and dependent variable C can both be analyzed, but they must be analyzed using separate scatter plots.

A scatter plot can only have 2 variables, it can be 1 dependent and 1 independent variable or 2 independent variables. Since the above problem deals with 1 dependent and 2 independent variables, 2 scatter plots must be made where each have 1 dependent variable (C) and 1 independent variable (A or B).
