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 , 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 is:
SOLUTION
Check each option:
- Option A: is within the range .
- Option B: is within the range .
- Option C: is within the range .
- Option D: is outside the range .
The value that could not represent a correlation coefficient is:
