Which term best describes the association between variables A and B?
1 answer:
Answer: Choice B) negative linear association
=================================
Reasoning:
The points all go downhill as you move from left to right. We can draw a straight line that is fairly close to all of them. This is known as the regression line. The regression line having a negative slope tells us the linear association is negative. This means the correlation coefficient r is negative, so, (r = -1 is not possible as not all points fall on the same straight line)

Answer:
39. r = 13.4
40. m = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
39. Given the equation, , to solve for r, the following are the correct steps to take to arrive at the solution:
(given)
Add 0.8 to both sides of the equation (addition property of equality)
(this is where the error occurred.)
40. The correct steps to take in solving the equation, is as follows:
(given)
Multiply both sides by 3 (multiplication property of equality)
(this is where the error occurred. This is what we should have at this line/step)
(dividing both sides by -1)
