Visual Representations of Multiple Correlation

If you have only two independent variables, then the general concept of multiple correlation can sometimes be visualized using 3-D graphs.  Some examples are given below.  you will be looking for the plane (surface) of best fit instead of the line of best fit.

  • Exact Positive Linear Multiple Correlation
  • Strong Positive Linear Multiple Correlation
  • Weak Positive Linear Multiple Correlation
  • No Linear Multiple Correlation

Those items should each be a link to a page with a graph on it.  I'm not exactly sure where this will go or how it these examples will look it is not easy to just make them up or to visualize -- let's work on this.
