1) Let  f (x) = 2 + 5x be a linear regression line of a linear regression from Y to X. Then the following applies to the scatter plot:  1) The closer the points in the scatter diagram to the regression line drawn the stronger the correlation between X and Y. 2) The further the points in the scatter plot are from the regression line drawn away, the stronger the correlation between X and Y. 3) Only if all points lie exactly on the regression line drawn is the correlation between X and Y is strong. 4) The position of the points in the scatter plot has nothing to do with the strength of the correlation.

Question

Which of the following four statements is correct?
Note: Only one answer is correct per question.
1) Let  f (x) = 2 + 5x be a linear regression line of a linear regression from Y to X.
Then the following applies to the scatter plot:


 1) The closer the points in the scatter diagram to the regression line drawn
the stronger the correlation between X and Y.


2) The further the points in the scatter plot are from the regression line drawn away, the stronger the correlation between X and Y.


3) Only if all points lie exactly on the regression line drawn is
the correlation between X and Y is strong.


4) The position of the points in the scatter plot has nothing to do with the strength of the correlation.

 

 


2) For the events A = "number of points when rolling the dice is two" and B = "number of points when rolling the dice
Rolling the dice is straight ":
* P (A \ B) is smaller than P (A).
* P (A \ B) is the same size as P (A).
* P (A \ B) is greater than P (A).
* No general statement can be made about the size ratio of P (A \ B) and
Do P (A).


3) If there are five people, the height is both in cm (variable X) and in meters (Variable Y) Which of the following statements about the empirical dispersion is correct?


* The two standard deviations sx and sy are equal.
* The two variances s2x and s2y are the same size.
* The two coefficients of variation vx and vy are equal.
* The two ranges Xmax - Xmin and Ymax - Ymin are equal
