The linear correlation coefficient between weight and length is requals=enter your response here. ​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)

Solution

The linear correlation coefficient between weight and length is approximately 0.750 (rounded to three decimal places).

If you have any questions or need further details, let me know! Here are some related questions you might consider:

  1. What does a correlation coefficient of 0.750 indicate about the relationship between weight and length?
  2. How would you interpret a correlation coefficient closer to 1 or -1?
  3. What are the potential implications of this correlation in a practical context?
  4. Can you explain how to calculate the correlation coefficient manually?
  5. What other statistical measures could be useful to analyze this data?

Tip: Always visualize data with a scatter plot when examining correlations to better understand the relationship.
