Data
![Page 16: Brief Guide On How To Use ARC’s Interactive Employment Map Atlanta Regional Commission For more information contact: mcarnathan@atlantaregional.com](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110213/56649c6f5503460f94921afc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Know Your Scatter PlotThe Scatter Plot is a useful representation of the data portrayed on the map.
It consists of an X- and Y- axis, with each dot representing a Superdistrict on the map.
The “line of best fit,” or slope, illustrates the relationship between the two variables. Here you can see that the two variables – education and income, are strongly correlated.
The intercept represents the value of Y when X=0.
