PROBLEM

Which of the following values could not represent a correlation coefficient?
A. -1
B. 0
C. 0.927
D. 1.032

STEP 1

1. The correlation coefficient, denoted as r r , ranges from -1 to 1.
2. Any value outside this range is not a valid correlation coefficient.

STEP 2

1. Identify the valid range for correlation coefficients.
2. Check each option to determine if it falls within the valid range.

STEP 3

The valid range for a correlation coefficient r r is:
1r1 -1 \leq r \leq 1

SOLUTION

Check each option:
- Option A: 1 -1 is within the range [1,1][-1, 1].
- Option B: 0 0 is within the range [1,1][-1, 1].
- Option C: 0.927 0.927 is within the range [1,1][-1, 1].
- Option D: 1.032 1.032 is outside the range [1,1][-1, 1].
The value that could not represent a correlation coefficient is:
1.032 \boxed{1.032}
