ACT Preparation / Unit 19 ACT 1808 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Scatter Plots of Measurements
Captions available
The idea
A scatter plot shows paired measurements as points, one point per observation. The overall pattern of the points shows how the two measurements relate.
In practice
Invented measurements of leaf length against leaf width form a rising band of points.
Where people slip
Describe the pattern of the whole cloud, not one point; single points can stray.
