Question

The following scatter plot demonstrates which type of correlation?

positive correlation
negative correlation
no correlation

Answer 1

Therw are no outliers. Outliers is a point that is out of the range of the correlation.

The group of points is going down making it a negative.

The points are not spread out. They are clustered together enough to determine it is a correlation.

It is a negative correlation.

Answer 2

The answer is negative correlation

Explanation:

Each point represent the result for an experiment. The shape of the graph makes a line with a negative slope, that means, when the X values increase the Y values decrease, and that is what is happening with the given graph.

A positive correlation would be for a line with a positive slope, i.e, the X values and Y values increase.

No correlation would be for a case where the graph doesn't describe any line.
