Question 2

A scatter plot shows no visible pattern between two variables. The correlation coefficient is reported as r = 0.05. What does this suggest?

Accepted Answer

Virtually no linear relationship

Answer

An r value close to zero indicates there is virtually no linear relationship between the two variables.

Question 3

A line graph shows revenue and expenses. They are parallel lines with revenue always above expenses. What does this indicate about profit?

Accepted Answer

Profit is constant.

Answer

Parallel lines with a constant gap mean the difference (profit) remains unchanged over time.

Question 4

A histogram shows a right-skewed distribution of customer purchase amounts. What does this imply about the median versus the mean?

Accepted Answer

Mean is greater than median.

Answer

In a right-skewed distribution, large outliers on the right pull the mean above the median.

Accepted Answer

52.2%
