Question

The answer is supposed to be E, but I don't get how they arrived to that answer.

(Use the following information to answer the next 2 questions.) Estimating the size of the oyster inside a shell by hand is slow; we would like to use an estimate based on the number of pixels in an x-ray of the oyster 6 8 10 14 16 Actual Size (cubic cm) 8. Which of the following is closest to the correlation between the number of pixels in the image and the actual size of the oysters? a) -0.86 b) -0.41 c) -0.06 d) 0.51 e) ****0.92

Explanation / Answer

As we can see that all the points are in increasing order which means as X increases so y increases.which means positive correlation.

Further we can also see that maximum points will pass through the line if we will draw a line through all the points.

As a to c are negative values so they can't be answer. Further points are closer so it is obvious more that 0.51

So from above things it's clear that answer is E.0.92
