Question

Rohen decided to collect data to determine if the size of a student's home and the student's age are correlated. He determined the data to have a correlation coefficient of 0.02. What does this r value indicate?

No correlation
A strong, positive correlation
A weak, positive correlation
A negative correlation

Answer 1

| r | ≤ 1

If r = 1, the correlation is perfect and positive, meaning that the data are linearly correlated and when one variable increases the other also increase.

if r = - 1, the correlation is perfect and negative, meaning that the data are linearly correlated and when one variable increases the other decreases.

A correlation coefficient close to zero means that the variables are not correlated at all.

So what does that last bit tell you?

Answer 2

Ok thank yall
