Which one of the following technological activities would most likely have a negative linear correlation coefficient over the course of the last 5 years? A. the number of text messages sent from a cell phone B. number of phone calls made on a cell phone C. the number of emails sent from a computer D. number of phone calls made on a landline

Respuesta :

Answer: D) phone calls made on a landline

More and more people are using cellphones, because of the convenience of having your phone with you at all times. From an economical standpoint, it doesn't make sense to pay for both a cell phone and a landline (especially if your budget is thin). So many people have decided to drop having a landline all together. The less people using a landline produces a negative downward trend, which is why we have negative linear correlation.
