Question 484556: For the table that follows, answer the following questions:
x y
1 7
2 10
3 13
4
- Would the correlation between x and y in the table above be positive or negative?
- Find the missing value of y in the table.
- How would the values of this table be interpreted in terms of linear regression?
- If a “line of best fit” is placed among these points plotted on a coordinate system, would the slope of this line be positive or negative?
Thanks to you

You can put this solution on YOUR website! For the table that follows, answer the following questions:
x y
1 7
2 10
3 13
4
------------------------------------------
- Would the correlation between x and y in the table above be positive or negative?
Positive because the data is linear.
-------------------------------------------
- Find the missing value of y in the table.
y increases 3 when x increases by 1
-------------------------------------------
- How would the values of this table be interpreted in terms of linear regression?
The points lie on the line y = 3x + 4
-------------------------------------------
- If a “line of best fit” is placed among these points plotted on a coordinate system, would the slope of this line be positive or negative?
Ans: Positive
