Select the best answer. When we standardize the values of a variable, the distribution of standardized values has mean 0 and standard deviation 1. Suppose we measure two variables X and Y on each of several subjects. We standardize both variables and then compute the least-squares regression line. Suppose the slope of the least-squares regression line is - 0.44. We may conclude that (a) the intercept will also be - 0.44. (b) the intercept will be 1.0. (c) the correlation will be 1/-0.44. (d) the correlation will be 1.0. (e) the correlation will also be - 0.44.

    (e) the correlation will also be - 0.44

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If

    μx = μy = 0

    σx = σy = 1

    m = - 0.44

    We know that the slope is the linear correlation is

    m = r * (σy / σx)

    ⇒ r = (m*σx) / σy

    ⇒ r = (-0.44*1) / 1 = - 0.44
