Chapter 14: Q14.115 (page 585)

If p= 0, then the two variables under consideration are linearly __

Short Answer

Expert verified

p= 0 implies that the two variables are linearly uncorrelated.

Step by step solution

01

Basics 

p(rho) is a statistical parameter for the entire population, determining whether the variables are linearly correlated or not.

Linear correlation means variables change at a constant rate, and their relationship is denoted by straight line curve.

02

Explanation 

pindicates the magnitude of correlation in the variables' populations. It is between +1 and -1.

p =0 means that the variables are linearly uncorrelated.
