Question

If the correlation coefficient is .87, is its relationship considered to be strong positive,weak positive,strong negative,weak negative or no correlation

Answer 1

Answer:

strong positive correlation co efficient

Step-by-step explanation:

correlation:-

A correlation co-efficient is a numerical measure of some type of correlation,meaning a statistical relationship between two variables.

positive correlation:-

Positive correlation occurs when an increase in one variable increases the value in another.

Negative correlation:-

negative correlation occurs when an increase in one variable decreases the value of another.

Strong positive correlation:-

A co-efficient of correlation of + 0.87 indicates a strong positive correlation between the independent variables

Strong negative correlation:-

A co-efficient of correlation of - 0.87 indicates a strong negative correlation between the independent variables.

Zero correlation:-

There is no relationship is called zero correlation

weak positive correlation:-

A co-efficient of correlation below 0.2 indicates a weak positive correlation between the independent variables.

weak negative correlation:-

A co-efficient of correlation below -0.2 indicates a weak negative correlation between the independent variables.
