The graph shows the value of a certain model of car compared with its age. Which statement is false?
Car's value ($)
Car's ago (years)
A. The correlation coefficient is close to -1,
B. The car's value is the explanatory variable.
O O Od
C. The car's age is strongly correlated to its value.
D. The data show a negative linear relationship.

B. The car's age is the explanatory variable

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows a negative linear relationship between car's age and car's value because, as as one variable increases, the other decreases.

Also, data points are close to each other along the line of best fits, therefore, the correlation coefficient would be close to -1, showing a strong negative relationship.

An explanation variable is one that isn't affected or dependent on another variable. In this case, the car's age is the explanatory variable and not the car's value. The car's value is dependent on the car's age, therefore, the car's age is the explanatory variable.

The statement in option B is FALSE.
