1.  Consider the variables family income and family expenditure.  Increase & decrease together  Change in one variable is accompanied by change in the other variable  Price and demand of a commodity are related variables  When Price increases, demand decreases and vice versa

2.  If the change in one variable is accompanied by a change in the other, then the variables are said to be correlated.  Family Income & Family Expenditure are correlated  Price and Demand are correlated

3.  Correlation can tell you about the relationship between variables. It is used to understand:  Whether the relationship is positive or negative  The strength of the relationship  In the case of family income & expenditure, they both increase and decrease together, so this is a positive correlation  In the case of price and demand, if one increases, the other decreases, so this is a negative correlation

4.  A “variable” is an attribute that can be measured  One-variable data has measures for one attribute  Recognize them when you see:  Bar Graphs  Circle Graphs  Tally Charts  One-variable data can be measured using:  Mean, Median, Mode  These are “Measures of Central Tendency”

6.  Measures for 2 attributes  Recognize them when you see  Table of Values  Ordered Pairs  Scatter Plots  Two-variable data can be analyzed by looking for a trend or pattern in the relationship.  This trend may be:  Linear  Quadratic  Exponential
