relationship between the points? A strong correlation exists when the plotted ordered pair points are close to the line of best fit. If the points line up exactly on the line of best fit‚ there is a perfect correlation. The correlation coefficient is a measure of the strength of the correlation. 3. True or False: Cause and effect relationships cannot be determined using the coefficient of determination. True Feedback: A primary characteristic of the correlation concept is that it only describes the

Linearity: A linear correlation coefficient factor was obtained between the peak area used and the absorbance Verses concentrations of lamivudine‚ zidovudine and nevirapine. The calibration curves were linear for concentrations between 15-150 µg/ml. The linearity of the calibration curves was validated by the values of the correlation coefficients (r2). The correlation coefficients were 0.999 for lamivudine‚ 0.999 zidovudine and 0.999 for nevirapine. The results of the linearity experiment are listed
