               6.      A researcher found a negative correlation between how
                       productive faculty members were and the amount of their
                       salaries. What does this statement mean?
               1.      faculty members are productive if they have high salaries
               2.      faculty members with medium salaries are the most
                       productive
               3.      faculty members with low salaries tend to be very
                       productive
               4.      faculty members with high salaries tend to be very
                       productive

               5.      What sort of correlation would be expected between a
                       company’s expenditure on health and safety and the
                       number of work related accidents?
