Consider the following scatter plots of realizations (samples) of (X, Y ) sampled from five different joint Gaussian distributions: a) Rank the values of Cov(X, Y ) for a-e. Explain your ranking. b) Would you expect that X and Y for any of these graphs would be statistically independent

step-by-step explanation:

part a

x     y

0     8

1     7.5

2     7

3     6.5

4     6

5     5.5  

for every hour i deducted .5 inches from the length of the candle

part b

it is a function because for every x value there is only one y value

part   c

for every x value there is only one y value
