Sales (in thousands) Training Hours 17 7 32 12 22 10 40 15 8 5
Compute the correlation coefficient for the data. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places, the tolerance is +/-0.0001.) The correlation coefficient is What is your interpretation of this value? (Do not round your intermediate computations to answer this question.) There is linear association between sales and training hours. Using the data, what would you expect sales to be if training was increased to eighteen hours? Use the linear regression model.
