ObjectivesAfter this section, you should be able to…
• Identify explanatory and response variables in situations where one variable helps explain or influences the other• Make a scatterplot to display the relationship between two quantitative variables• Describe the direction, form, and strength of the overall pattern of a scatterplot• Recognize outliers in a scatterplot

Why do we study relationships between two
variables?
we already know we can plot data, find numerical summaries, look for overall patterns, describe data
to make predictions, explain phenomena

Response Variablemeasures the outcome of a study
-may help explain or influence changes in a response
-can help predict changes in the response variable

Describing Scatterplots
Use D.O.F.S.
Direction: overall positive or negativeOutliers: do there appear to be any?Form: overall linear, non-linear, clustered?Strength: how closely do the points follow the form?

Does a strong association between two variables indicate a cause-and-effect
relationship?
*association does not imply causation
ex/ ice cream sales and drowning deaths

Correlation Resistancean outlier will change r
an outlier "in" the pattern will increase strength
an outlier "out" of the pattern will decrease strength
Jun 29Â3:28 PM
Correlation Factscorrelation makes no distinction between explanatory and response variables
because r uses standardized values of observations, r will not change when we change units of measurement
r has no unit of measurement

BellworkThe figure below plots the average brain weight in grams versus average body weight in kilograms for 96 species of mammals. There are many small mammals whose points are at the lower left overlap.
(a) The correlation between body weight and brain weight is r = 0.86. Explain what this value means.
(b) What effect would removing the hippo have on the correlation?
