Question

The table shows Britney's distance, in miles, from her destination after different time intervals in hours: Time (hours) (x) 2 4 1 3 6 5 7 Distance from destination (miles) (y) 1,000 880 1,060 940 760 820 690 What is the correlation coefficient for the data, and what does it represent? 0; it represents no correlation between x and y 0. 999; it represents a linear positive correlation between x and y −0. 999; it represents a linear negative correlation between x and y 0. 999; it represents a linear negative correlation between x and y.

Answer 1

It represents a linear positive correlation between x and y −0. 999.

Given

The table shows Britney's distance, in miles, from her destination after different time intervals in hours:

Time (hours) (x) 2 4 1 3 6 5 7

Distance from destination (miles) (y) 1,000 880 1,060 940 760 820 690

What is the correlation coefficient?

A number between +1 and −1 is calculated so as to represent the linear interdependence of two variables or sets of data.

Then,

The correlation coefficient for the data, and what does it represent is;

It represents no correlation between x and y.

• 0.999; Represents a linear positive correlation between x and y.

• -0.999; represents a negative correlation between x and y.

• 0.999; it represents a negative correlation between x and y.

Hence, it represents a linear positive correlation between x and y −0. 999.
