An analyst wants to determine the relationship between speed, in miles per hour, and the time, in hours, it takes to drive 5 miles. Twenty trials are completed and the correlation coefficient between speed and time is determined to be -0.276. Therefore, slower speed was related to greater time. How is the correlation affected if the units for time are changed from hours to
minutes? (3 points)
The correlation and time measurement would change proportionally to one another.
The correlation would increase because changing the units for time would result in an increase in time values.
The correlation would stay the same because the change in units for time would have no effect on it.
It is impossible to determine the amount of change experienced by the correlation.
The correlation would decrease because only the units for one of the variables changed.
