Question
How is a linear relationship between 2 variables measured in statistics? Explain.
Select all true statements.
There are several numerical measures of
The correlation coefficients
The correlation coefficients ranges from -1 to 1. Values close to +1 or -1 show a strong linear relationship.
If the values of x and y are interchanged, the correlation coefficients remains the same.
The value of the coefficient is resistant to outliers.
