15. Draw a scatter plot with elevation as the independent variable.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The required scatter plot is shown below:

Step-1 – Concept of scatter plot.

A scatter plot is a kind of plot where we use Cartesian coordinates to display values for typically two variables for a set of data.

Step-2 – Determine the coordinate from the given table.

Consider Elevation as x coordinate and Average Precip. as y coordinates

Step-3 – Scatter plot.
