To determine the strength of the correlation represented by the given r values, we can look at their absolute values.
- A. -0.5 (absolute value = 0.5)
- B. -0.8 (absolute value = 0.8)
- C. -0.6 (absolute value = 0.6)
- D. -0.7 (absolute value = 0.7)
The strongest correlation is represented by the value with the largest absolute value. Therefore, the r value that represents the strongest correlation is:
B. -0.8
- A. -0.5 (absolute value = 0.5)
- B. -0.8 (absolute value = 0.8)
- C. -0.6 (absolute value = 0.6)
- D. -0.7 (absolute value = 0.7)
The strongest correlation is represented by the value with the largest absolute value. Therefore, the r value that represents the strongest correlation is:
B. -0.8
