Worksheet Scatter Graph

The document outlines four different scatter graph exercises involving the height of sunflowers, speed of a toy car, temperature of cooling tea, and number of pages read over time. Each exercise includes tasks such as plotting data points, drawing lines of best fit, estimating values, and comparing actual measurements to expected trends. The focus is on analyzing and interpreting data visually through scatter graphs.

1: Height of Sunflowers by Days Growing

The scatter graph shows the height and age of 10 sunflowers.

a. Plot the following information on the scatter graph:


• A sunflower that was 22 cm tall at 12 days.
• A sunflower that was 45 cm tall at 25 days.

b. Draw a line of best fit on the graph.

c. Estimate the height of a 20-day-old sunflower.

d. A sunflower was 5 cm tall at 3 days. Was it shorter or taller than


expected?

2: Speed of a Toy Car Over Time


The scatter graph shows the speed (m/s) and time (seconds) of a toy car.

a. Plot the following:


• A car travelling at 1.8 m/s after 6 seconds.
• A car travelling at 3.1 m/s after 12 seconds.

b. Draw a line of best fit on the graph.

c. Predict the speed of the car at 10 seconds .………. m/s

d. At 2 seconds, the car travelled at 0.2 m/s.


Was this slower or faster than expected?

3: Temperature of Cooling Tea Over Time


The scatter graph shows the temperature of a cup of tea as it cools.
a. Plot the following:

• The tea was 60°C after 8 minutes.


• The tea was 45°C after 15 minutes.

b. Draw a line of best fit.

c. Estimate the temperature at 12 minutes .………. °C

d. At 3 minutes, the tea was 85°C. Was it cooler or hotter than expected?

4: Number of Pages Read Over Time


The scatter graph shows how many pages a student
read over several days.

a. Plot the following:


• The students read 40 pages on day 4.
• They read 70 pages on day 7.

b. Draw a line of best fit.

c. Estimate how many pages the student would have read by day 6.

d. On day 2, the student had read 12 pages.


Is this below or above the expected trend?
