Which type of correlation would you expect to see between the distance traveled and the time it takes to travel that distance?
A. positive correlation
B. negative correlation
C. no correlation
idk why this question is confusing me, but it is
ok i figured it out myself
The Smith family took a car trip.
They traveled 1/2 the distance from San Antonio to Austin on Monday
and 3/12 the distance between San Antonio and Austin did the Smith family travel on Monday and Tuesday?
The question is asking about the relationship between the distance traveled and the time it takes to travel that distance. To determine the correlation between these two variables, we need to consider how changes in one variable (distance) are related to changes in the other variable (time).
In this case, we can expect a positive correlation between distance traveled and time taken. This means that as the distance traveled increases, the time taken to cover that distance also increases. Similarly, as the distance traveled decreases, the time taken to cover that distance will also decrease.
To understand this concept intuitively, let's consider an example. If you are driving a car from one city to another, as the distance between the cities increases, it will generally take more time to cover that larger distance. On the other hand, if the distance between the cities is shorter, it will generally take less time to cover that shorter distance.
So, the correct answer to the question is A. positive correlation.
