Solution
Create x/y table:
- The table of values is given below:
Graphing points
Graphing the above points on a graph, we have:
Line of best fit
Positive or Negative Correlation
- The correlation is negative.
- This is because the line of best fit is sloping downwards from left to right indicating that the larger the x-values, the smaller the y-values get. This indicates that both x and y-values are moving in "opposite" directions, implying that their correlation must be negative.
