Correlation

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…

Textbook Question

Chapter 1.3, Problem 19E

Freezing temperature. Ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are liquids used in antifreeze and deicing solutions. Ethylene glycol is listed as a hazardous chemical by the Environmental Protection Agency, while propylene glycol is generally regarded as safe. Table 11 lists the freezing temperature for various concentrations (as a percentage of total weight) of each chemical in a solution used to deice airplanes. A linear regression model for the ethylene glycol data in Table 11 is

E = − 0.55 T + 31

where E is the percentage of ethylene glycol in the deicing solution and T is the temperature at which the solution freezes.

Chapter 1.3, Problem 19E, Freezing temperature. Ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are liquids used in antifreeze and

(A) Draw a scatter plot of the data and a graph of the model on the same axes.

(B) Use the model to estimate the freezing temperature to the nearest degree of a solution that

is 30% ethylene glycol.
