You have collected data on the average weekly amount of studying time (T) and grades (G) from peers at your university. Changing
the measurement from minutes into hours has the following effect on the correlation coefficient: a. cannot be computed since some students study less than an hour per week
b. does not change the rTG
c. decreases the rTG by dividing the original correlation coefficient by 60
d. results in a higher rTG
If the average weekly amount of studying time and Grade are compared such that a certain correlation Coefficient value is obtained, changing the unit of measurement of any of the variables, will not affect the value of the correlation Coefficient most notably because the value of R, correlation Coefficient is a normalized or standardized value that ranges between - 1 and 1 and hence, resistant to unit changes in the compared variables. Hence, Correlation coeffient for the rate of study and grade obtained will not change even if rate of study is measured in hour.
There is a 20 percent chance Angela will pull a red scarf, 60 percent chance she will pull a black scarf and 20 percent chance she will pull a white scarf. So if she pulls a red scarf then there will be a 18 percent chance she will pull a white scarf after. I Hope this helps!
