Question 418162: from this table
x y
1 (-1/4)
2 (-1/2)
3 ( -3/4)
4 ( ? )
1. would the correlation between x and y be positve or negative?
2. what is the missing value of y?
3. how would the values of this table be interpreted in terms of linear regression?
4. if a 'line of best fit' is placed among these points plotted on a coodinate system, would the slope be positive or negative?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! x y
1 (-1/4)
2 (-1/2)
3 ( -3/4)
4 ( ? )
1. would the correlation between x and y be positve or negative?
r = -1
---------
2. what is the missing value of y?:::-1
-----------------------
3. how would the values of this table be interpreted in terms of linear regression?
y = (-1/4)x
-----------------
4. if a 'line of best fit' is placed among these points plotted on a coodinate system, would the slope be positive or negative?:: negative
