6. Three data sets are collected, and the correlation coefficient is computed in each case. Possible values for the correlation coefficients are -0.5, 0.0, 0.3, 0.6, and 0.95. Match the correlations with the data sets and write a paragraph explaining your rationale. (a) the number of car accidents along a road and the number of elephants i the local zo0

Compute the Correlation Coefficient for the data displayed in the table below:     x   24   31    38   27    33     y   63   72    79   65     73 Round your final decimal answer to three decimal places (round to the nearest thousandth)   Correlation Coefficient = [cc]       =  _______________

Let x be the average number of employees in a group health insurance plan, and let y be the average administrative cost as a percentage of claims. x 3 7 15 32 75 y 40 35 30 26 18 (a) Make a scatter diagram of the data and visualize the line you think best fits the data.  Flash Player version 10 or higher is required for this question. You can get Flash Player free from Adobe's website.   (b) Would you say the correlation is low, moderate, or strong? positive or negative? strong and negative moderate and negative   strong and positive low and negative low and positive moderate and positive (c) Use a calculator to verify that Σx = 132, Σx2 = 6932, Σy = 149, Σy2 = 4725, and Σxy = 2997. Compute r. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)r =  As x increases, does the value of r imply that y should tend to increase or decrease? Explain. Given our value of r, we cannot draw any conclusions for the behavior of y as x increases. Given our value of r, y should tend to…

How does multiplying each score by a (positive) constant affect the value of the correlation? The correlation changes sign. The correlation does not change. The correlation decreases. The correlation increases.
