The scatter plot shows the number of flowers that have bloomed in the garden during the month of march:
a scatter plot with points showing an upward trend with points that are moderately spread out from a line of best fit. the y axis is labeled number of flowers and the x axis is labeled days in march

part a: using computer software, a correlation coefficient of r = 0.98 was calculated. based on the scatter plot, is that an accurate value for this data? why or why not? (5 points)
part b: instead of comparing the number of flowers and the day in march, write a scenario that would be a causal relationship for flowers in a garden. (5 points)
