On page 277 in this journal, there are six scatter plots. Use these scatter plots to answer the following questions:

Rank the six correlations provide from lowest correlation to highest correlation. Include a 2- to 3-sentence explanation for why you ranked these the way you did.

Choose one of the six graphs and compute the r-squared value. Interpret this value as it relates to variation.

Using the information presented on this page, explain one reason why BMI does not always indicate an individual’s health status (correlation does not imply causation).
