StatisticsThe correlation coefficient of a set of data is 0.91. Select all of the statements that are true. The positive correlation coefficient tells us that there is an outlier. The two variables involved have a very strong positive correlation. The correlation coefficient implies that as the independent variable increases, the dependent variable increases. Because the correlation coefficient is positive, there is no causation. The correlation coefficient implies causation.
