Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given two datasets, A = {4, 5, 6} and B = {10, 20, 30}, calculate both covariance and correlation. What insights can you derive from the values?

💡 Hint: Remember to calculate means first and consider the relationship between data when deriving insights.

Question 2

If the correlation coefficient between two variables is -0.9, what does that imply about their relationship? Can you construct a hypothetical dataset that fits this correlation?

💡 Hint: Try sketching out the data points and observe how they trend together!
