You hypothesize that there may be a non-linear relationship between your predictors, where there may be more mosquitoes in sites with water and with caribou hosts. How do you create your model? Assume that "caribou" corresponds to the presence/absence of caribou Assume that "water" corresponds to the presence/absence of water
number of mosquitoes ~ caribou * water
number of mosquitoes ~ caribou + water
presence/absence of mosquitoes ~ caribou + water
presence/absence of mosquitoes ~ caribou * water
A scatterplot with no linear trend will have an r value of zero
true or false?

- True or False A zero correlation between variables X and Y means that X and Y have no relationship.arrow_forwardAn online clothing company is keeping track of their customers purchases. Company also offers a credit card where customers get additional offers if they use that card when they make purchases from their online store. For those customers who has their credit card, the company has additional information such as age, yearly income, etc. The company management is interested in looking at the relationship between the income (in 1000s of dollars) and the total yearly purchases from their store for these credit card holders . They have gathered this information from a random sample of 42 credit card holders. Below provided is a partial MINITAB output for predicting the yearly purchases from the income.
