We will investigate the relationships between adolescent fertility rate and female labor force participation in several countries of South America. Calculate the correlation coefficient.

11. Why doesn't correlation equal causation?

True or false .If there is no linear correlation between enrollment and the number of burglaries , then those two variables are not related in anyway. Explain why ?

An Economics instructor assigns a class to investigate factors associated with the gross domestic product (GDP) of nations. Each student examines a different factor (such as life expectancy, literacy rate, etc.) for a few countries and reports to the class. Apparently, some of the classmates do not understand Statistics very well because several of their conclusions are incorrect. Explain the mistakes in comments a and b below. a) Explain the mistake in the statement "There was a very strong correlation of 1.22 between Life Expectancy and GDP" Choose the correct answer below O A. A correlation cannot be greater than 1. O B. A correlation that is greater than 1 implies that the variables are not quantitative, so the correlation cannot be interpreted. OC. A correlation that is close to 1 implies a very weak correlation. The correlation must be close to 10 for it to be interpreted as a very strong correlation. O D. A correlation that is greater than 1 implies a weak correlation, not a…

Once the correlation coefficient is known, how can we find the amount of the shared variance?

What are the reasons why causal conclusions cannot be made from a correlation?
