Assume that X and Y are two random variables. Suppose Y is exponential with mean 798. Suppose that, when X is conditional on Y = y, it is exponential with mean y. (X itself is not exponential, but when X is conditional on Y = y it is exponential.) What is the correlation of X and Y? Give four decimal places and use random variables.

Which of the following statements about correlation is true? Choose the correct answer below. A. We say that there is a negative correlation between x and y if the x-values increase as the corresponding y-values increase. B. We say that there is a positive correlation between x and y if the x-values increase as the corresponding y-values decrease. C. We say that there is a positive correlation between x and y if the x-values increase as the corresponding y-values increase. O D. We say that there is a positive correlation between x and y if there is no distinct pattern in the scatterplot.
A researcher wants to assess the relationship between the number of training sessions dogs have before a dog show, and whether or not they win a prize at the dog show. Which correlation should the researcher use to measure the relationship? Point-biserial correlation Spearman’s rho Cramer’s phi Pearson’s correlation
A statement is made about correlation. State whether the correlation is positive or negative and whether the correlation is most likely due to coincidence, a common underlying cause, or a direct cause. If there is an underlying cause, state what the underlying cause is. If one directly causes the other, state which is the cause and which is the effect.(a) In Angela's class, the taller students got lower scores on the test.(b) As Thomas's income rose over the last 20 years so has his stress level.
Serial correlation, also known as autocorrelation, describes the extent to which the result in one period of a time series is related to the result in the next period. A time series with high serial correlation is said to be very predictable from one period to the next. If the serial correlation is low (or near zero), the time series is considered to be much less predictable. For more information about serial correlation, see the book Ibbotson SBBI published by Morningstar. A research veterinarian at a major university has developed a new vaccine to protect horses from West Nile virus. An important question is: How predictable is the buildup of antibodies in the horse's blood after the vaccination is given? A large random sample of horses were given the vaccination. The average antibody buildup factor (as determined from blood samples) was measured each week after the vaccination for 8 weeks. Results are shown in the following time series. Original Time Series Week Buildup Factor 2 3 4…

If the Pearson correlation is measured between two variables X and Y and was - 0.56. This indicates that: Select one: a. X and Y medium correlation, and if X increases, Y will increase generally b. X and Y strong correlation, and if X increases, Y will increase generally c. X and Y strong correlation, and if X increases, Y will decrease generally d. X and Y medium correlation, and if X increases, Y will decrease generally

An Internet advertising agency is studying the number of "hits" on a certain web site during an advertising campaign. It is hoped that as the campaign progresses, the number of hits on the web site will also increase in a predictable way from one day to the next.
