14.35 Why so small? Make a scatterplot of the following data:
x | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 9 | 10 |
y | 12 | 2 | 3 | 5 | 9 | 11 |
Use your calculator to show that the correlation is about 0.4. What feature of the data is responsible for reducing the correlation to this value despite a strong straight-line association between x and y in most of the observations?
