Describe the correlation between the score and time spent studying.

Respuesta :

There appears to be a positive correlation between the number of hour spent studydng and the score on the test.

When identifying the independent and dependent quantities, we think about what would cause the other to change.  The score on the test would not cause the number of hours spent studying to change; rather, the number of hours spent studying would cause the score to change.  This means that the number of hours studying would be the independent quantity and the score would be the dependent quantity.

Plotting the graph with the time studying on the x-axis (independent) and the score on the y-axis (dependent) gives you the graph shown.  You can see in the image that there seems to be a positive correlation; the data seem to generally be heading upward.

As per the table, the given science scores and time data for studying about 10 hours are given.

  • A positive correlation can be seen between the number of hours spent studying and the scores.  This states that the no. of hours of studying could be on the independent and the score would be the dependent quantity.
  • When on the graph with the time studying on the x-axis and the y-axis gives you the graph the line seems to be going up hence a positive correlation.
