The linear correlation coefficient r measures the strength
of a linear relationship between the paired values in a sample.
The R correlation coefficient is used to measure the strength of the relationship between the X and y in the data collected. For the data collected, the R correlation coefficient was calculated to be .9918. Due to the fact that .9918 is so close to 1, this number represents a strong positive linear correlation between the x and y values. In other words, as the value x increases, the value of why will increase as well. |
