Look at the attached image.

Directrix (directrix):

Your data looks closest to which one of those three?

Directrix (directrix):

First, second, or third?

OpenStudy (tabpernick):

first

Directrix (directrix):

Yes. The first has a correlation coefficient of what? It is shown on the "look at this" image.

OpenStudy (tabpernick):

where would the correlation coefficient be located?

Directrix (directrix):

Circled in blue on the image.

OpenStudy (tabpernick):

oh ok

Directrix (directrix):

So what is the correlation coefficient on the image?

Directrix (directrix):

What did you read it to be?

OpenStudy (tabpernick):

It can't be zero right? cause it has to be over +1.00?

Directrix (directrix):

The coefficient of correlation number is between and including -1 to +1. You said that the data in your problem looks most like the first image.

Directrix (directrix):

That image had a coefficient of correlation of 1. So, your data has a coefficient of correlation close to 1.

Directrix (directrix):

Which answer option is closest to 1 ?

OpenStudy (tabpernick):

0

Directrix (directrix):

>>>It can't be zero right? For your data, correct. It cannot be zero. >>> cause it has to be over +1.00? No c. of correlation is ever over one. So, no.

Directrix (directrix):

0 is not correct.

Directrix (directrix):

0 is not the closest answer option to the number one.

OpenStudy (tabpernick):

okay and it gcan't be -0.5 right? so 0.25

Directrix (directrix):

>>it gcan't be -0.5 right? Right. >>so 0.25 No.

Directrix (directrix):

What is left?

OpenStudy (tabpernick):

0.90

Directrix (directrix):

That is correct and is the closest of the options to 1.
