Draw a scatter plot that shows a person's height and his or her age, with a description of any trends. Explain how you could use the scatter plot to predict a person's age given his or her height. How can the information from a scatter plot be used to identify trends and make decisions?

Time is independent of height yet height depends on time, therefore x is age after 0 yrs and y is height in ft perhaps. Given the age, you can predict reasonable height based on records and history of the average height given x yrs. Furthermore one can employ a technique called linear regression on the scatter plot to run statistics. keep in mind that correlation isn't causation.
