do you know what a correlation coefficient is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nope i'm completely lost and this homework is due in an hour & i still have 6 more Q.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if the absolute value of (correlation coefficient) is close to 1, then the x and y variables have a linear relatonship. if it is closer to zero, then no relationship. positive or negative cc implies a positive/negative slope in the linear relationship
OpenStudy (anonymous):
given that, what would you pick as your answer?
