Answer 7

I don't recall anything about correlation coefficients. But at least, if you ordered these values by time (independent), you would see the relationship between members of time and distance:
1, 1,060
2, 1,000
3, 940
4, 880
. . . .
From there we just need to understand what the correlation coefficient is telling us.
