PSAT Math Multiple-Choice Question 492: Answer and Explanation
Question: 492
Based on the data John collected, over which of the following intervals is there a positive relationship between his caffeine intake, in milligrams per hour, and his reading speed, in pages per hour?
- A. 40–60 and 60–75
- B. 40–60 and 80–100
- C. 25–40 and 40–60
- D. 25–40, 60–80, and 100–120
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
B
The question asks about which intervals on the graph demonstrate a positive relationship. A positive relationship is one in which both variables increase together, resulting in a positive slope. From the graph, the only intervals that demonstrate a positive relationship between caffeine intake and reading speed are between 40–60 mg/hour and 80–100 mg/hour. The correct answer will contain only these intervals. Eliminate (A), (C), and (D). The correct answer is (B).
