Question 511455: . For the table that follows, answer the following questions:
x y
1 1/3
2 2/3
3 1
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?
(Points : 4)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! For the table that follows, answer the following questions:
x y
1 1/3
2 2/3
3 1
4 4/3
--------------
Would the correlation between x and y in the table above be positive or negative?:::positive: as x increases, y increases.
--------------------------
- Find the missing value of y in the table.:: 4/3
----------------------
- How would the values of this table be interpreted in terms of linear regression?
y = (1/3)x-(1/3)
--------------------------
- 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
---------------------
