Question

What would be the most appropriate correlation coefficient for the scatter plot?

Answer 1

Step 1
find the values of x and y
x       y
1      3
2      3
3      4
2      5
3      6
4      7
5       8
5      9
6      11
6       12
7      12
7      14
8      14

using a excel tool
see the attached table
the correlation coefficient r is equal to 0.97


the answer is 
the most appropriate correlation coefficient for the scatter plot is 0.95
