Complete Question:

Ali says that when many people observe an accident, the victim is less likely to receive assistance. Ali believes that there is a _____ correlation between these variables.

A. small

B. large

C. negative

D. positive.

Answer:

The answer is Option C. Negative

Ali says that when many people observe an accident, the victim is less likely to receive assistance. Ali believes that there is a NEGATIVE correlation between these variables.

Explanation:

Correlation can be defined as the way two variables are related to one another.

Correlation can be used to get information about a particular situation.

We have three types of correlation. They are

1. No correlation: This means that there is no relationship between the two given variables.

2. Positive correlation: This is the way two variables are related to one another whereby as the importance of one variable rises, importance of the second variable rises as well.

3. Negative correlation: This is the way two variables are related to one another whereby as the importance of one variable increases , importance of the second variable is greatly reduced.

In the answer to the question above , the first variable is the people observing the accident and the second variable is the victim. Due to the fact that the victim is LESS LIKELY to receive assistance when people are observing an accident, this makes the relationship between the two variables a NEGATIVE CORRELATION.

Answer:

Negative.

Explanation:

So, let us fill in the gap in the question. Note that the capitalized word is the missing word in the question above.

'' When many people observe an accident, the victim is less likely to receive assistance. Ali believes that there is a NEGATIVE correlation between these variables''.

What the above statement means that the person named Ali does not believe in the old adage that says and quote: ''there is safety in numbers''. The adage means that one is somewhat safe if the number of people involved in a problem or accident are much. But, Ali believes that the correlation is negative between these variables. That is as many people are involved in an accident, there will be decrease in the amount of assistance that can be given to each of the victims.
