Question

Dr. Hoda measures job satisfaction and number of years of education. In examining her scatterplot, she sees the cloud of points has no slope. This indicates which type of relationship?

Answer 1

Zero association

Step-by-step explanation:

In a scatterplot, association between two variables is seen if the cloud of points have a slope. The slope tells the degree of association between the two variables plotted. In this case, job satisfaction and number of years of education were plotted, and the cloud of points are so dispersed that they do not form a slope. This shows that there is no association between the two variables plotted and hence there is Zero Association.
