(a) Draw a scatter diagram of the data. Choose the correct graph below.

A. 0 10 0 10 x y A scatter diagram has a horizontal x-axis labeled from 0 to 10 in increments of 1 and a vertical y-axis labeled from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. The following 5 points are plotted, listed here from left to right: (2, 2); (6, 4); (6, 8); (7, 1); (9, 5).

B. 0 10 0 10 x y A scatter diagram has a horizontal x-axis labeled from 0 to 10 in increments of 1 and a vertical y-axis labeled from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. The following 5 points are plotted, listed here from left to right: (2, 8); (6, 2); (6, 6); (7, 9); (9, 5).

C. 0 10 0 10 x y A scatter diagram has a horizontal x-axis labeled from 0 to 10 in increments of 1 and a vertical y-axis labeled from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. The following 5 points are plotted, listed here from left to right: (2, 8); (6, 2); (6, 6); (7, 4); (9, 5).

D. 0 10 0 10 x y A scatter diagram has a horizontal x-axis labeled from 0 to 10 in increments of 1 and a vertical y-axis labeled from 0 to 10 in increments of 1. The following 5 points are plotted, listed here from left to right: (2, 2); (6, 4); (6, 8); (7, 6); (9, 5).

(b) Compute the correlation coefficient. The correlation coefficient is r = _______. (Round to three decimal places asneeded.)

(c) Determine whether there is a linear relation between x and y. Because the correlation coefficient _____ is __________  (negative, positive) and the absolute value of the correlationcoefficient, nothing, is _______▼( greater, not greater) than the critical value for this data set, _____ nothing,_________  (a positive, a negative, no) linear relation exists between x and y.(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
