Based on the given table above, and using the scatter plot tool, the value of the correlation coefficient for this data set would be r = 0.997, so if you round this off, you will get 1.0. So the answer for this would be the second option which is 1.0. I hope this is the answer that you are looking for. 

Answer:

Hence, the correlation coefficient is:

               r=1.0

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the correlation coefficient ''r'' is calculated by the formula:

[tex]r=\dfrac{\sum{XY}}{\sqrt{\sum{X^2}\sum{Y^2}}}--------------(1)[/tex]

Let x denote the data point (Number of days since purchase)

Let y denote the data point (Mileage Displayed on odometer)

x         y        X=x-x'       Y=y-y'        XY         X²          Y²

15      67       -20            -95           1900     400      9025

25     122      -10            -40            400       100       1600

35     164        0               2               0           0            4

45     210       10             48             480       100       2304

55     247      20             85           1700       400      7225

x' be the mean of the data of the x-values.

[tex]x'=\dfrac{15+25+35+45+55}{5}\\\\\\x'=\dfrac{175}{5}\\\\\\x'=35[/tex]

Also let y' denote the mean of the y-values.

[tex]y'=\dfrac{67+122+164+210+247}{5}\\\\\\y'=\dfrac{810}{5}\\\\\\y'=162[/tex]

Now we have:

∑ XY=4480

∑ X²=1000

∑ Y²=20158

Hence, we put all the  values in the formula (1) to obtain:

r=0.997 which is close to 1.0

Also from the scatter plot we could observe that the relationship is linear and also strong positive relationship.

Hence, the correlation coefficient is 1.0
