The scatter plot is attached.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a scatter plot, we graph the independent variable on the x-axis and the dependent variable on the y-axis.
In this case, age is independent and weight is dependent.
This means the points we plot are:
(7, 50); (7, 60); (8, 65); (8, 70); (9, 70); (9, 80); (10, 75); and (10, 90).
The cat will take 0.8 seconds to catch up with the mouse
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The distance between the cat and the mouse = 4 feet
cat's speed = 17 feet per second.
mouse's speed = 12 feet per second
To Find:
how long will it take the cat to catch up with the mouse = ?
Solution:
We know that
distance = speed x time
Rewriting the equation for time we get
time =
now we know that distance is 4 feet
and the speed is 17 -12 = 5 feet per second
Thus the time is
= 
= 0.8 seconds
