Answer 1

Answer:An increase in visitors is correlated with an increase in sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given scatter plot we can see that variables are positively correlated  because they are moving in the same direction.

Since we know that the positive correlation is a relationship between two variables such that they increase or decrease together.

Since, the two variables given her is " number of visitors" and "Total sales"

Therefore, based on the given data it can be observed that "An increase in visitors is correlated with an increase in sales."
