sample you selected and the question that was explored in the study. * There is a correlation between x and y. The scatter chart shows that the more hours a student studies the higher their grade percentage will be. 2. Report the r2 linear correlation coefficient and the linear regression equation produced in the Excel spreadsheet. * The linear correlation coefficient is positive. * The r^2 linear correlation coefficient is 0.785 * The linear regression equation is y=1.5608x+55.767

Correlation Name: Institution: Correlation The main purpose of linear correlation is to show how strongly two variables affect each other. If the increase in one variable leads to no definite change in the other variable, we say that there is no correlation between the two variables. If the increase in one leads to the increase in the other, we say there is a positive correlation. However if the increase in one leads to a decrease in the other, there is negative correlation. The strength

that I learned about correlation and causation was that they are not the same and correlation does not show causation. I learned that just because something happens at the same time does not mean that the one thing cause the other to happen all the time (Mason,2011). References Lanthier, E. (March 29, 2002).

Correlation, Predication, Confidence, and Errors: Analysis of Statistics in the News In statistics, there are a number of ways to compare how data is associated with the subject matters being discussed. In this paper, I will discuss how three different magazine articles use statistics to improve and expound on their theories, the methodology used, and if their use of statistics made the article more or less convincing. The statistical methods that will discuss statistics in the news include

Description When I was come back to China this summer, something bad happened to me.

[Your Name] [Instructor] [Class] [Date] Violent Video Games do not CAUSE VIOLENCE Introduction Correlation does not prove Causation. Since 1992, there have been 387 school shootings in America. In the wake of these tragedies, the investigators and our society have looked to find somewhere to point the blame. Some blame gun laws, some blame our school system, but almost all conclusions place at least some blame on video games. When 90% of today's teenagers video games are 90% likely to include

EECS 451 1-SIDED Z-TRANSFORM ∞ DEF: Z + {x(n)} = X + (z) = n=0 x(n)z −n , even if x(n) is noncausal. ∞ Compare to 2-sided z-transform: X(z) = n=−∞ x(n)z −n . WHY?: To solve difference equations with nonzero initial conditions. PROPERTIES OF 1-SIDED Z-TRANSFORM X + (z): 1. x(n) causal→1-sided z-transform X + (z)=2-sided z-transform X(z) 2. Unique inverse only for causal signals: no info on {x(n), n < 0} Equal causal parts but unequal anticausal parts→same X + (z) 3. ROC: Always |z| > |pmax |

Statement Example 1 In this example of thesis statement, the emphasis of the study is to find a correlation, either positive or negative, between Mozart’s music and short term memory. This is an example of a research paper with data observation and analysis. The observations were recorded by running ANOVA and Post Hoc tests to compute values for the variables. The goal was to find a positive correlation between the two variables. For that a hypothesis was tested that was proven to be negative. Alternatively
