Which of the following is a description of the data with a correlation coefficient of -0.2?
low positive correlation
low negative correlation
no correlation
high negative correlation

Respuesta :

low negative correlation


Answer: Low negative correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

High correlation: The value of correlation coefficient lies between -1 to -0.5 or 0.5 to 1.

Medium correlation : The value of correlation coefficient lies between -0.5 to -0.3 or 0.3 to 0.5.

Low correlation : The value of correlation coefficient lies between -0.3 to -0.1 or 0.1 to 3.

The given correlation coefficient :[tex] r =-0.2[/tex]

Clearly it is negative having minus sign.

Also it lies between -0.3 to -0.1

Hence,  the data with a correlation coefficient of -0.2 has a low negative correlation.
