yes.

The 2011 Canadian Census at School project collected data on school-age children. The following scatterplot below the mean wrist circumference of boys according to age 175 165 155 145 135 79 13 15 1719 Age (years) Can we use the coefficient of correlation formula we covered in class to measure the relationship? No because the age can not be considered as an explanatory variable No because the data points are not enough O No because the assumption of the coefficient of correlation formula is not satisfied

Explanation / Answer

Correct option:

No, because the assumption of the coefficient of correlation formula is not satisfied.

EXPLANATION:

Linearity condition is not satisfied. For linearity, a straight line relationship between the variables should be formed. Here, we note the line formed by the scallter plot is curved.at the right end side.
