Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, D, E
Bivariate correlational analysis measures the magnitude of linear relationship between two, and only two, variables and is performed on data collected from a single sample. Correlational analysis provides two pieces of information about the data: the nature or direction of the linear relationship (positive or negative) between the two variables and the magnitude (or strength) of the linear relationship.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Every inferential statistic has is own formula for degrees of freedom (numbers of values that are free to vary). The formula for degrees of freedom (df) for a Pearson r is n  2. Thus, in this case, the df is 43  2 = 41.

It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
