<u>Answer- </u>D. There is a strong negative association between the variables
<u>Solution-</u>
Properties of Correlation Coefficient
1- Its value ranges between -1 and 1.
2- The greater the absolute value of correlation coefficient, the stronger is the linear relationship.
3- The weakest linear relationship is indicated by a correlation coefficient equal to 0.
4- A positive correlation means that if one variable gets bigger, the other variable tends to get bigger.
5- A negative correlation means that if one variable gets bigger, the other variable tends to get smaller.
As the given correlation coefficient is -0.98 (-ve), whose absolute value is 0.98 (closer to 1)
So there is a strong negative association between the variables.
A measurement is an area of number sense that relates to the quantity of ingredients in recipes
You know that the length is 2 more than the width. If z is the width then y = z(z+2). I don't see the graph so you will have to scan and look for that y-z relationship.
Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint
given
slope=5=m
yint=-3=b
y=5x-3
