Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.

Linear Correlation

A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.

Regression Analysis

Regression analysis is a statistical method in which it estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variable. In simple terms dependent variable is called as outcome variable and independent variable is called as p…

Chapter 11, Problem 7CRE

Car Repair Costs Listed below are repair costs (in dollars) for cars crashed at 6 mi/h in full-front crash tests and the same cars crashed at 6 mi/h in full-rear crash tests (based on data from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety). The cars are the Toyota Camry, Mazda 6, Volvo $40, Saturn Aura, Subaru Legacy. Hyundai Sonata, and Honda Accord. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between the repair costs from full-front crashes and full-rear crashes?
