Question

Which of the following is NOT a possible value of the correlation coefficient?
A. negative 0.9
B. zero
C. positive 0.15
D. positive 1.5
E. negative .05

Answer 1

Answer:

positive 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

by definition, the possible values for correlation coefficients are

-1 ≤ correlation coefficient ≤ 1

+1.5 lies outside this range and hence is not valid.
