Answer 2

1- Positive correlation

2- Negative correlation

3- No correlation

Explanation:

1- The more a player practices free throws, the better they will be at it and therefore will make more free throws. Thus, there is a positive correlation between the time spent practicing and the number of free throws made.

2- Since each item bought has a cost, the more items are bought, lower will be the checking account balance. Thus, there is a negative correlation the number of items bought and the checking account balance.

3- There is no explicit correlation between players heights and their ability to hit a baseball therefore it is fair to assume that there is no correlation between the height of baseball player and the number of hits made
