r = −0.85

Question

r = −0.85

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The prompt presents a correlation value: r = -0.85, but no answer choices are provided to evaluate against.
To proceed, we can interpret the given statistic in isolation. A correlation of -0.85 indicates a strong, inverse linear relationship between the two variables: as one increases, the other tends to decrease, and the association is quite strong in magnitude.
However, without options to compare, we cannot determine which statement among them would be correct or incorrect. In a typical multiple-choice setup, you’d expect options such as: describing the direction and strength of the relationship, noting the sign of the correlation, or commenting on the practicality or limitations of inferring causation from r.
Because the answer set is empty, any attempt to select a correct option would be speculative. If you intended to provide specific choices, please share them so we can assess each option against the meaning of r = -0.85.
In the meantime, here are some key takeaways you can apply once options are available: interpret the sign (negative indicates inverse direction), interpret the magnitude (closer to -1 or 1 means stronger linear association), and remember that correlation does not imply causation and can be affected by outliers or nonlinearity.
