Look at the scatterplot graph. what is the relationship between variable x and variable y? a. as variable x increases, variable y increases. b. as variable x increases, variable y decreases. c. both variables show a trend toward decreasing values. d. no distinct relationship exists between variables x and y.

The answer is D. No distinct relationship exists between variables x and y.

You can determine this by looking at the distribution of the dots. They are all over the place which means that it does not follow a trend. Statisticians, researchers and the like use scatterplot graph to show correlation or a relationship. If there was a relationship, you would see a trend the dots follow. 

1. true.2. true.3. true.4. false.5. true.the concept of darwin's theory of evolution involves the idea that there are limited resources in a given living environment and that the organisms which live within have variations in their genetic make up due to random mating. the ones with beneficial genetic variations can express certain traits which give them an upper hand in surviving and reproducing in the said environment compared to ones who may have a more disadvantageous variation in traits. over time, the organisms with an upper hand will survive and reproduce more frequently and pass on their beneficial genes while the others die. the result is evolution, where we observe (usually, but not always) eventually, phenotypic distinct changes.

Ithink the answer is d.
