Question

Look at the distance vs. age plot. Describe the relationship between age and distance and explain how it supports or does not support your hypothesis. Think about: As the distance from Kilauea increases, what happens to the age of the volcanoes/mountains?

Answer 1

When the Distance from Kilauea increases, the age of the volcano also increases. This set of data supports my hypothesis because it proves that the older volcanoes are in the western side of Hawaii farther away from Kilauea. The older the volcano is, it becomes less active.
