Below shows the linear relationship between first year college GPA and high school GPA For both variables the GPA ranges from 0 to 4 in this sample. However, for the high schools sampled in this region, the true range of GPA is 0 to 5, how might this affect the correlation between these two variables?

For a sample of eight bears, researchers measured the distances around the bears' chests and weighed the bears. Minitab was used to find that the value of the linear correlation coefficient is r= 0.846. Using a = 0.05, determine if there is a linear correlation between chest size and weight. What proportion of the variation in weight can be explained by the linear relationship between weight and chest size? Click here to view a table of critical values for the correlation coefficient. .... a. Is there a linear correlation between chest size and weight? A. No, because the absolute value of the test statistic exceeds the critical value of 0.707. B. Yes, because the absolute value of the test statistic exceeds the critical value of 0.707. C. Yes, because the test statistic falls between the critical values of - 0.707 and 0.707. D. The answer cannot be determined from the given information. b. What proportion of the variation in weight can be explained by the linear relationship between…
If I conclude that as temperature increases, the number of snowboard sales decrease, this would be a negative correlation true or false?
Show that the correlation coefficient is independent of the origin of reference and the units of measurement.
A study was done asking people how much money they spend per month on their natural gas bill and how much money per month they spend on their electric bill. The correlation r was found to be 0.94 and the p- value for correlation was 0.0003. Then a person with a high natural gas bill will also have a high electric bill. O true false
Suppose that you are interested in the relationship between Reading and Writing scores. (a) Provide the scatterplot for the association between Reading and Writing scores. Based on the scatterplot, do you expect Reading to be correlated with Writing? If so, based only on the plot, would you expect the correlation to be positive or negative? Explain your answer. (b) Report the value of the correlation between Reading and Writing scores, and whether it is statistically significant. Do these results agree with your expectations from part (a)?

Refer to the correlation table for this question, The data come from Wave 5 of the Arab Barometer survey in Kuwait and were collected in 2019. In this analysis, we see the correlation between age and years of education (Pearson's R= -0.2729) with the p-value (0.0000) below. Explain what a correlation coefficient is and interpret the one you see here. edu_ye~s age edu_years 1.0000 age -0.2729 1.0000 0.0000
If you have 10 variables when computing correlation coefficients how many unique coefficients will you have overall?
An ecologist is interested in exploring the relationship between pollination rate and the number of bees present at apple orchards. The relationship is: (Pollination rate) = 372.6 + 13.5 x (bees) with r = 0.80. The best interpretation of the correlation coefficient is: (pick one) 1. 64% of the variability in pollination rate observed at apple orchards is explained by the relationship with the number of bees 2. the correlation between pollination rate and number of bees is 0.64 3. 80% of the variability in number of bees at apple orchards is explained by the relationship with the pollination rate 4. the correlation between pollination rate and number of bees is 0.80
