1. Consider two discrete random variables with some valid joint probability mass function: X = {the number of credit cards owned by a randomly selected person} Y = {the number of debit cards owned by a randomly selected person} Which of the following statements is TRUE for the correlation coefficient? (1) Suppose the correlation coefficient between X and Y is equal to 0. This implies that the number of credit cards is independent of the number of debit cards owned by a randomly selected person. (2) Suppose the correlation coefficient between X and Y is equal to 0.9. This means that the high usage of debit cards is due to the high usage of credit cards. (3) Suppose the correlation coefficient between X and Y is equal to 0.02. This means that there is almost no relationship between the usage of debit and credit cards for a randomly selected person. (4) Both (1) and (3) (5) All of the above
