Bivariate Data

Bivariate data is a set of data that has been collected in two variables. It shows a relationship between the variables. Each data value in one variable corresponds to a data value in the other variable. A data set with the shoe sizes and heights of people is an example of bivariate data.
Shoe Size Height (in.)

A scatter plot is used to represent bivariate data.
