MAT300 Week 10 Discussion Latest 2018 June

Week 10 Discussion

Correlation and Regression

Many relationships among variables exist in the real world. One way to determine whether a linear relationship exists is to use the statistical techniques known as correlation and regression. The strength and direction of a linear relationship are measured by the value of the correlation coefficient. It can assume values between and including +1 and -1.

Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, explain why. Select one question to post your PIN

A negative relationship between two variables means that for the most part, as the x variable increases, the y variable increases.

A correlation coefficient of +1 implies a perfect linear relationship between the variables.

Even if the correlation coefficient is high (near +1) or low (near -1), it may not be significant.

When the correlation coefficient is significant, you can assume x causes y.

It is not possible to have a significant correlation by chance alone.

In multiple regression, there are several dependent variables and one independent variable.
