Question 17 3 pts The correlation between distance (in kilometers) and airfare (in dollars) is 0.8. If we were to change the distance to be measured to miles (all the values in the distance will therefore be divided by 1.61), what effect will this have on the correlation? Because changing units does not affect the correlation, the correlation will remain the same. The correlation will become 0.5. The correlation will decrease by 0.5, making the new correlation 0.3. Since only the distance measurements have changed, the correlation will decrease significantly.
