Textbook Question
Chapter 14.4, Problem 148E
In Exercises 14.144–14.149, we repeat data from exercises in Section 14.2. For each exercise here,
- a. obtain the linear
correlation coefficient . - b. interpret the value of r in terms of the linear relationship between the two variables in question.
- c. discuss the graphical interpretation of the value of r and verify that it is consistent with the graph you obtained in the corresponding exercise in Section 14.2.
- d. square r and compare the result with the value of the coefficient of determination you obtained in the corresponding exercise in Section 14.3.
14.148 Crown-Rump Length. Following are the data on age and crown-rump length for fetuses from Exercises 14.62 and 14.102.
