A history instructor has given the same pretest and the same final examination each semester. he is interested in determining if there is a relationship between the scores of the two tests. he computes the linear correlation coefficient and notes that it is 1.15. what does the correlation coefficient value tells the instructor? a. there is a strong positive correlation between the test b. there is a strong negative correlation between the test c. the history instructor has made a computational error d. the correlation is something other than linear

A random sample of college students was surveyed about how they spend their time each week.  The scatterplot below displays the relationship between the number of hours each student typically works per week at a part- or full-time job and the number of hours of television each student typically watches per week.  The correlation between these variables is r = –0.63, and the equation we would use to predict hours spent watching TV based on hours spent working is as follows:             Predicted hours spent watching TV = 17.21 – 0.23(hours spent working) Since we are using hours spent working to help us predict hours spent watching TV, we’d call hours spent working a(n) __________________ variable and hours spent watching TV a(n) __________________ variable. The correlation coefficient, along with what we see in the scatterplot, tells us that the relationship between the variables has a direction that is _________________ and a strength that is ______________________. According to the…

In a regression study, relating Price/unit (x) to Weekly Sales (in Kg.), with the scatter plot showing a strong negative direction, 63% of the variability in sales could be accounted for by the variation in the Unit Price. The correlation coefficient in this study is: 0.79 -0.4 -0.79 0.4

Suppose in a given problem about the correlation between height and weight of 20 college students, we come up with an r value of 0.93. What is the value of the coefficient of determination? a. 0.84b. 0.85c. 0.86d. 0.87

Data collected from a sample of 8 students relating study time (x in hours per week) and leisure time (y in hours per week) yielded the information shown below. What is the value of the sample correlation coefficient? Enter your answer accurate to TWO (2) decimal places. X= 59.37 Y = 4.25 SS= 1843.87 SS, = -49.75 SS, = 7.5

A researcher computes the correlation coefficient r= 0.4212 for an explanatory and response variable. What proportion of the changes in the response variables value is accounted for by the change in the explanatory variable's value? Give your answer to four decimal places.

In a study of the stability of IQ scores, a large group of individuals is tested once at age 18 and again at age 35. The following results are obtained. At age 18: average score = 100, SD = 15 At age 35: average score = 100, SD = 15 The correlation coefficient between scores at age 18 and 35 is 0.80 and the scatter plot is football shaped. What percent of the individuals with a score of 115 at age 18 score more than 100 at age 35? Fill in the blank with a number between 0 and 100 to represent the percentage. (Do not enter the % sign.) Don't worry about rounding; any correctly rounded answer will receive full credit.
