Question

3. Use the following table to answer questions (a – c).

Answer 1

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

B) The correlation coefficient is $r=0.75$, which can be determined by plugging the data into a TI-84 calculator.

C) A correlation coefficient of $r=0.75$ indicates that the correlation between the independent and dependent variable (x and y in this case) is moderately strong with a positive correlation. The closer $r$ is to 1, the stronger the positive correlation. The closer $r$ is to -1, the stronger the negative correlation. If $r$ is closer to 0, then there's no correlation.
