A study indicates the correlation coefficient between salt intake and blood pressure is 0.8. If we plot the data points using salt intake as X axis, and blood pressure as Y axis. What will show on the plot?
1. The data points are clustered close to a line that slopes down to the right
2. The data points are clustered close to a line that slopes up to the right
3. The data points are scattered around a line that slopes down to the right
4. The data points are scattered around a line that slopes up to the right
correlation coefficient between salt intake and blood pressure is 0.8 which is strongly and positively correlated.
If we plot the data points using salt intake as X axis, and blood pressure as Y axis.
Then it shows that the data points are clustered close to a line that slopes down to the right.
A study indicates the correlation coefficient between salt intake and blood pressure is 0.8. If we...

Researchers want to know if there is a correlation between BMI and systolic blood pressure in males over 50. A random sample of 9 males is selected and their data is recorded below. a) Calculate the Pearson Correlation Coefficient for these two variables and b) test whether the correlation is significantly different from 0. Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Give each of the following for part b to receive full credit: 1) the appropriate null and...

Determine if the following statement is true or false. A correlation coefficient close to 1 is evidence of a cause-and-effect relationship between the two variables. The statement is true O A. False. Only a correlation coefficient close to 0 indicates a cause-and-effect relationship between the two variables O B. False. A correlation coefficient should not be interpreted as a cause-and-effect relationship O c. True, but only if all the conditions for correlation are met. False. A correla.on coefficient of 1...
