Jumps 2008 How are Olympic performances in various events related? The plot shows winning long-jump and high-jump distances, in meters, for the Summer Olympics from 1912 through 2008.

a) Describe the association.

b) Do long-jump performances somehow influence the high-jumpers? How do you account for the relationship you see?

 c) The correlation for the given scatterplot is 0.920. If we converted the jump lengths to centimeters by multiplying by 100, would that make the actual correlation higher or lower?

 d) What would you predict about the long jump in a year when the high-jumper jumped one standard deviation better than the average high jump?
