ok?

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

The table below shows the air temperature, in degrees Celsius, and the number of snowboards sold in Amy's store: Temperature (degrees Celsius) (x) 1 -1 -2 -3 0 -4 2 Number of snowboards sold (y) 10 24 31 38 17 45 3 What is the correlation coefficient for the data, and what does it represent? 0; it represents no correlation between x and y 1; it represents a perfectly linear positive correlation between x and y 1; it represents a perfectly linear negative correlation between x and y -1; it represents a perfectly linear negative correlation between x and y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the equation for the correlation coefficient again, i forget?

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

The value of R is 1. This is a strong positive correlation, The value of R2, the coefficient of determination, is 1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you calculate that using the equation?

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

i just dont know either if putting d or c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use this site to help you get the correlation coefficient http://www.socscistatistics.com/tests/pearson/Default2.aspx

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

yep sr mojojojo:0

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

that doesnt help:c

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

i lready know the correlation coefficient but i just dont know if putting either D or C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The value of R is -1. This is a strong negative correlation, which means that high X variable scores go with low Y variable scores (and vice versa). The value of R2, the coefficient of determination, is 1. Courtesy of this site http://www.socscistatistics.com/tests/pearson/Default2.aspx

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

dude i know -.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1 is perfectly negative.

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

but that still dont give me the answer

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

are you sure is not c?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Does this help, it came from my Data Management Book.

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

yeah thanks

OpenStudy (gahm8684):

can you help me with 2 more?

OpenStudy (gahm8684):
