If the value of co-efficient of determination is 0.64, what is the value of coefficient of correlation ?

  • A.0.40
  • B.0.80
  • C.0.08
  • D.0.04

Answer: B

The coefficient of correlation is 0.80, because the coefficient of determination is the square of the correlation coefficient.

\[ r^{2} = 0.64 \]\[ r = \sqrt{0.64} = 0.80 \]

The value 0.40 is half of 0.80 and 0.64 divided by 1.6, which is not a recognised step. The values 0.08 and 0.04 are obtained by moving the decimal point wrongly. Strictly r could be minus 0.80 as well, but only 0.80 is offered.
