Math Problem Statement

The coefficient of correlation is .... (round to 2 d.p.)

b.     The coefficient of determination is Blank 2. (round to 2 d.p.)

c.     The coefficient of non-determination is Blank 3. (round to 2 d.p.)

The coefficient of correlation is **...**. (round to 2 d.p.) The coefficient of determination is **Blank 2**. (round to 2 d.p.) The coefficient of non-determination is **Blank 3**. (round to 2 d.p.)

Solution

From the image, we can extract the following details:

  • The equation of the regression line is y=1.223x+230.33y = -1.223x + 230.33.
  • The coefficient of determination R2=0.8941R^2 = 0.8941, which indicates the strength of the fit.

Now, we can address each part:

a. Coefficient of correlation (r):

  • The coefficient of correlation rr is the square root of R2R^2, but since the slope is negative, rr will also be negative. r=R2=0.89410.945r = -\sqrt{R^2} = -\sqrt{0.8941} \approx -0.945 So, rounded to 2 decimal places, the coefficient of correlation rr is -0.95.

b. Coefficient of determination (R²):

  • The coefficient of determination is already given as R2=0.8941R^2 = 0.8941. Rounded to 2 decimal places, it is 0.89.

c. Coefficient of non-determination:

  • The coefficient of non-determination is 1R21 - R^2. 10.8941=0.10591 - 0.8941 = 0.1059 Rounded to 2 decimal places, it is 0.11.

Summary:

  • a. Coefficient of correlation (r): -0.95
  • b. Coefficient of determination (R²): 0.89
  • c. Coefficient of non-determination: 0.11

Here are 5 related questions for deeper exploration:

  1. How does the negative correlation affect the interpretation of the data?
  2. What does the coefficient of determination tell us about the model?
  3. How can we interpret the slope 1.223-1.223 in this context?
  4. What factors could influence the coefficient of non-determination?
  5. How would the correlation change if we transformed the data?

Tip: The closer R2R^2 is to 1, the stronger the linear relationship between the two variables.
