Performance Task# __ in Statistics and Probability

Title: _____________

Introduction
Correlational study is a kind of investigation in which researchers measure two
variables and assess the statistical relationship between them. The term correlation is
defined as the relationship of two or more things. Correlational research consists of looking
for several variables that interact with each other, so when the change in one of them is
evident, one can assume what the change will be in the other that is directly related to it.

Objectives/ Hypothesis:
This study aims to seek correlation between the age of 15-25 and their weight.

Hypotheses:
1. There is a correlation between the age of 15-26 and their weight.
2. There is no correlation between the age of 15-26 and their weight.

B. Scatter Plot Graph

Interpretation:

Conclusion: (5 sentences)
As seen on the graph, there is a correlation between ages 15 -25 and their weight, which is
moderately high positive correlation. The age of a person does influence their weight. As
evidenced from the interviews we conducted, aging is associated with weight distribution.
This strongly provides strong evidence that height and weight in a diverse population of
teenagers to young adults (15-25) constitute correlates moderately high variables.
