Definition Definition Relationship between two independent variables. A correlation tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.

An article included a summary of findings regarding the use of SAT I scores, SAT II scores, and high school grade point average (GPA) to predict first-year college GPA. The article states that "among these, SAT II scores are the best predictor, explaining 17 percent of the variance in first-year college grades. GPA was second at 15.2 percent, and SAT I was last at 13.1 percent." If the data from this study were used to fit a least squares line with y = first-year college GPA and x = high school GPA, what would the value of r2 have been? R2 ____________________%
A sociologist recorded the number of contacts entered in a cell phone and the number of texts sent in a week for 20 cell phone users. The resulting data were used to conduct a hypothesis test to investigate whether there is a linear relationship between the number of contacts and the number of texts sent. What are the correct hypotheses for the test?

Consider a capital market with only two risky assets A and B. Their standard deviations are 1 and 2, respectively. There is no risk-free asset. When the correlation coefficient ρAB = 0, construct a portfolio, whose variance is strictly less than 1. [Hint: you may want to try the portfolio that puts more weight on the security with the lower standard deviation.]
According to the World Health Organization, obesity has reached epidemic proportions globally. While obesity has generally been linked with chronic disease and disability, researchers argue that it may also affect wages. In other words, the body mass index (BMI) of an employee is a predictor for salary. (A person is considered overweight if his/her BMI is at least 25 and obese if BMI exceeds 30.) The accompanying data file includes salary (in $1,000s) for 30 college-educated men with their respective BMI and a dummy variable that represents 1 for a white man and 0 otherwise.
