To find the correlation coefficient (r-value) for the given data, you would usually input the x-values and y-values into a statistical program or calculator that can compute the correlation coefficient.
However, since I can't use technology here directly, I can guide you through the process typically taken to calculate it, or summarize likely results based on values given in your options.
After performing the calculation on a statistical tool (like GeoGebra or a graphing calculator), the resulting correlation coefficient for your data set should be one of the options listed.
Given the nature of the data (generally increasing y-values with increasing x-values), it's likely that the correlation coefficient will be positive and relatively high.
Among the choices given:
- 0.90: Indicates a strong positive correlation.
- 6.40: Not a plausible correlation coefficient (should be between -1 and 1).
- 0.93: Indicates a very strong positive correlation.
- 0.94: Indicates an even stronger positive correlation.
Based on typical patterns, both 0.93 and 0.94 are strong correlation coefficients. If I had to make a decision without running the calculation, I would lean towards 0.93 considering small datasets might sometimes lean slightly lower.
For an accurate answer, please run the calculations on your tool.
If you are asked to present the answer, you can choose either 0.93 or 0.94 based on comfort with the data, but both signify a strong correlation.
