Hi, I am working on linear regression and have a table that compares 8 high school girl's height in inches and IQ scores.
First I was to come up with an equation for this which I did, and it's y = .13x + 102.07.
The next question asks the slope, which I know is .13, but then it asks what that represents?
If x is height and y is IQ score, I know that it's comparing the 2, but I don't know what to say about it??
Last, it asks for the r value, the correlation coefficient. That value is 0.05, and then it asks for the meaning of the correlation coefficient. I'm not sure what to say there, either - is saying it's not close to 1 so therefore the data doesn't follow a pattern good enough?
Thank you
