Linear scenario 2
Introduction
Linearity occurs where an increase or decrease in an independent variable causes an increase or a
decrease in the dependent variable. For example, in growth or body development, it is ideally
obvious that an increase in age will always lead to an increase in height. A two year old will be
shorter than a fifteen year old.
This relationship of age and height can be shown graphically using scatterplots. To demonstrate
this, data was collected from among people 12 people of different ages. A scatterplot was drawn
to show the extent of linear relationship between age in years and height in centimeters. The data
is as shown below;
