What does it means to have a correlation in a scatter plot?
A correlation exists in a scatter plot if there is a general trend in the outputs as inputs increase. If the outputs generally increase in value, then there is a positive correlation. If the outputs generally decrease in value, then there is a negative correlation.
How do positive correlations and negative correlations differ?
An example of a positive correlation is: the number of cars on the road and the number of greenhouse gas emissions there are. As one of those rises, so does the other. A negative correlation is when one statistic rises causing the other to drop. Look at a few scatter plots and you will easily be able to see positive and negative correlations
How can you tell from a scatter plot wheather two variables have a positive correlation a negative correlation or no correlation?
Positive correlation = the slope of the scattered dots will rise from left to right (positive slope) Negative correlation = the slope of the scattered dots will fall from left to right (negative slope) No correlation = no real visible slope, the dots are too scattered to tell.
What is the definition of negative trend?
A trend that decreases downward in a scatter plot.
How do you draw a scatter plot with a negative correlation?
you graph the points going downwards
What is the data in a scatter plot that appear to go downhill from left to right?
negative
If y tends to increase as x increases on a scatter plot what is the correlation of the paired data?
If Y increases as X increases, you are referring to a positive correlation. However, if Y falls as X increses, you have a negative correlation.
Is a scatter plot positvie?
Only ever use the scatter plot if the outcome is positive, otherwise use non sequential theory to bring about the required outcome. Say, the nonquotient is the same value. Then try the next scatter.
How is a scatter plot that shows no correlation different from a scatter plot that has a negative corrrelation?
A scatterplot with no correlation means that there is no relation between the two categories, a negative correlation means that the two categories have a relationship that as one gets greater the other gets smaller
What does a scatter plot with strong positive correlation look like?
The line that connects the dots is relatively straight.
