Below are four bivariate data sets and their scatter plots. (Note that all of the scatter plots are displayed with the same scale.) Each data set is made up of sample values drawn from a population. x 1.0 10.0 1.0 8.2 2.0 9.0 2.0 4.9 3.0 8.0 3.0 10.2 4.0 7.0 4.0 5.8 5.0 6.0 5.0 2.1 6.0 5.0 6.0 5.2 7.0 4.0 7.0 9.0 8.0 3.0 0 1 23 436 7 8 91011 8.0 4.3 0 123 43 6 1 8 91011 9.0 2.0 10.0 1.0 Figure 1 9.0 9.4 10.0 6.7 Figure 2 m n 1.0 7.5 1 1.0 3.0 2.0 9.3 9 2.0 4.6 3.0 7.4 3.0 3.6 4.0 5.2 4.0 4.9 5.0 7.7 5.0 4.3 6.0 5.2 6.0 6.7 7.0 4.6 7.0 6.2 8.0 7.1 0 1 23 45 6 + 8 1011 8.0 8.2 9.0 6.0 0 12 3 45 6 + 8 91611 10.0 4.1 Figure 3 9.0 7.0 10.0 7.7 Figure 4 Answer the following questions about the relationships between pairs of variables and the values of r, the sample correlation coefficient. The same response may be the correct answer for more than one question. Which data set indicates the strongest negative linear relationship between its two variables? x ? (Choose one) For which data set is the sample correlation coefficient r equal to - 1? (Choose one) (c) Which data set has an apparent positive, but not perfect, linear relationship between its two variables? (Choose one) (d) For which data set is the sample correlation coefficient r closest to 0? (Choose one)
