(b)
Relationship between lean body mass and metabolic rate.
(b)
Answer to Problem 10E
Linear, positive and moderately strong association without outliers.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Data on the lean body mass and resting metabolic rate for 12 women:
Strength: Since the points in the scatterplot do not lie closer together but not even spread far apart. Thus, the strength will be moderately strong.
Unusual features: Since there are no points in the scatterplot with strong deviation from the general pattern in the other points. Thus, no outliers exist.
Form: Since in the scatterplot, no strong curvature exists. Thus, the form will be linear.
Direction: Since the pattern in the scatterplot slopes upwards. Thus, the direction will be positive.
