Studies have shown that people who suffer sudden cardiac arrest have a better chance of survival if a defibrillator shock is administered very soon after cardiac arrest. How is survival rate related to
the time between when cardiac arrest occurs and when the defibrillator shock is delivered?
= survival rate (percent) and x = mean call-to-shock time (minutes) for a cardiac rehabilitation center (in which cardiac arrests occurred while victims were hospitalized
The accompanying data give y
and so the call-to-shock time tended to be short) and for four communities of different sizes.

A botanist found a correlation between the length of an aspen leaf and its surface area to be 0.94. Why does thecorrelation value of 0.94 not necessarily indicate that a linear model is the most appropriate model for therelationship between length of an aspen leaf and its surface area?
(A)
The value must be exactly 1 or
to indicate a linear model is the most appropriate model.
(B)
The value must be 0 to indicate a linear model is the most appropriate model.
(C)
A causal relationship should be established first before determining the most appropriate model.
(D)
The value of 0.94 implies that only 88% of the data have a linear relationship.
(E) Even with a correlation value of 0.94, it is possible that the relationship could still be better represented by a nonlinear model.
