The graph represents the results of a survey taken by focus groups each shown a different version of an upcoming commercial for a sports car. Each version had a different amount of content showing the car in fast-driving scenes. After the group viewed the commercial, each member was asked two questions: "Did you feel that the car was sporty?" and "How likely are you to purchase this car?" The position of the circles on the left indicate how much fast-driving content (F) was in the version of the commercial show and the % of viewers who found the car to be 'sporty' (S). The relative size of the circles indicates how likely the members of the group were to purchase the car (L). The bigger the circle, the more likely they were to purchase.
Use the drop-down menus to fill in the blanks in each of the following statements based on the information given by the graph.
5. If the relationship between L and S were inversed, then were would be a correlation between F and S.
6. Please choose this drop-down as a Graphs question needs to have 2 .
Read the text and make a connection of the text with the diagram
Answer the questions
By reading the text and seeing the diagram we are easily able to understand that
As the fast driving content (F) increases the % of people who think car was sporty (S) also increases.
As the fast driving content (F) and the % of people who think car was sporty (S) increases the number of people who said they will purchase the car (L) also increases.
Now attempt the questions
5. If the relationship between L and S were inversed, then were would be a __________ correlation between F and S.
The current relation is when F increases S also increases, if the relationship reversed then the decrease in the value of F also decreases the value of S. So the relationship will remain positive and will just change the direction of the relationship from + + to - - .
But, reversing the relation doesn't mean from positive to negative?

As the fast driving content (F) and the % of people who think car was sporty (S) increases the number of people who said they will purchase the car (L) also increases.
Now attempt the questions
5. If the relationship between L and S were inversed, then were would be a __________ correlation between F and S.
The current relation is when F increases S also increases, if the relationship reversed then the decrease in the value of F also decreases the value of S. So the relationship will remain positive and will just change the direction of the relationship from + + to - - .
L is directly proportional to S and F AND S is directly proportional to F.
So the change in relation between L and S will not impact the relationship between S and F.
Hence, it will still remain positively correlated, only the size of circles will change and it will be smaller for the largest F and largest for the smallest F.
