Scatter plots use both horizontal and vertical axes to plot data points. The purpose for using this particular plot is to show how much one variable is affected by another. The scatterplot below is from differnet weather reporting locations in Nevada. The higher up the reporting station is the more likely the mean annual temperature is lower.
