Scientists were looking for a relationship between the number of hours of sleep and the effect it has on motor and process skills. Subjects slept for different amounts of time, and then did the same driving challenge in which their reaction time was measured. The table shows the results:
Construct a scatter plot for this data.
Describe the relationship between amount of sleep and reaction time.
| Amount of sleep (hours) | Reaction time (seconds) |
|---|---|
| \qquad \qquad \enspace 4 | \qquad \qquad 1.65 |
| \qquad \qquad \enspace 5 | \qquad \qquad 1.5 |
| \qquad \qquad \enspace 6 | \qquad \qquad 1.35 |

After a maths exam, Uther commented that he left out Question 10 because it was not relevant to the topics that were assessed, but that the other questions were fine. The teacher felt that Question 10 and Question 7 were assessing the same skills, but decided to look at the results of students across all 8 classes. She plotted the percentage who had gotten Question 10 correct against the percentage who had gotten Question 7 correct.
Determine whether the following describes the data:
There is no relationship between students' performance in Q7 and Q10.
Students performed similarly in Q7 and Q10.
Students who performed poorly in Q7 performed well in Q10.
Let's assume that Uther performed exceptionally well in every other question. In which region should the teacher expect Uther's data point to be in?
