Best Answer

An r value of -0.82 is negative, so there is a negative correlation between the variables being compared. AS one variable increases, the other decreases. Second, r^2 = (-0.84)^2 = 0.7056. This means 70.56 percent of the variation in the dependent variable can be explained by the independent variable.
