Question

Madelina wants to make a prediction using a linear model with a correlation coefficient of 0.55.Which statement best describes how accurate she can expect her prediction to be?A. Her prediction will be unlikely to be close to the actual value.B. Her prediction will be somewhat likely to be close to the actual value.C. Her prediction will very likely be close to the actual value.D. Her prediction will probably be close to the actual value.

Answer 1

Given:

Correlation coefficient = 0.55.

Find-:

Choose correct option

Explanation-:

A correlation coefficient of 0.55 implies a week of positive correlation because it's close to 0.50. Remember that strong correlations are 1 or -1, positive or negative, and the middle of the interval represents no correlation.

So,

Her prediction will be somewhat likely to be close to the actual value.
