Mathematics Homework Help

I need this within 24 hours. There’s only 1 question to answer.

Please notice the questions says to respond to 1 of the bulleted items. Please tell me whether you chose the 1^st or 2^nd bullet to make it easier for me. Also, I use more than 1 plagiarism checker so please make sure your work is 100% authentic. Please make sure you use at least 1 reference and cite it in your answer if applicable.

Correlation and Regression” (Note: Please respond to one [1] of the following two [2] bulleted items):

• Debate the following statement: “Correlation means Causation.” Determine whether this statement is true or false, and provide reasoning for your determination, using the Possible Relationships Between Variables table from your textbook (attached).
• Pick any two variables that you feel may be related and estimate what you think the strength of the correlation coefficient would be for those two variables. In your response, estimate the value of r. For example, specify a strong (.7 to .9), medium (.4 to .6), or low (0 to .3) value for r. The value of the coefficient can be positive or negative. For example, consider an increase in police patrols in a neighborhood and the number of burglaries that occur in that neighborhood. I would say that would be a strong inverse relationship with an r value of -0.8; as one (patrols) increases, the other (burglary rate) goes down. Describe the factors that you think would contribute to why the variables would have the relationship that you estimate it to be.
