Teaching guide

What students learn

Build and interpret scatter plots for bivariate data, looking for clustering, outliers, and association.

Worked example
Plot the paired data, then classify the association: (2, 16), (4, 24), (6, 32), (8, 40), (10, 48).
Answer: Positive association
Why: As x increases, y increases every time, so the points rise from left to right: a positive association.

Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.
