Arianna gathered data about the distance of 20 cities from the equator and the average hours of sunlight per day in december for each city. she found the correlation coefficient between the two values to be -0.91. what type of correlation exists between the hours of sunlight and the distance from the equator in arianna's data?

Strong, negative correlation.

So with correlations, they have two categories that they fall under.

Firstly, they either fall under positive or negative correlation. It's as it seems: positive correlation coefficients are positive numbers, negative correlation coefficients are negative numbers. In this case, our correlation is negative.

Next, they either fall under weak or strong correlation. If the absolute value of the correlation coefficient is closer to zero, then it's considered a weak correlation. However, if the absolute value of the correlation coefficient is closer to one, then it's considered a strong correlation. In this case, the absolute value of -0.91 is 0.91, and since that is closer to 1 this means our correlation is strong.

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)
