Do larger universities tend to have more property crime? University crime statistics are affected by a variety of factors. The surrounding community, accessibility given to outside visitors, and many other factors influence crime rate. Let x be a variable that represents student enrollment (in thousands) on a university campus, and let y be a variable that represents the number of burglaries in a year on the university campus. A random sample of n = 8 universities in California gave the following information about enrollments and annual burglary incidents.

x	12.9	29.8	24.5	14.3	7.5	27.7	16.2	20.1
y	24	69	39	23	15	30	15	25

A)Compute r. (Round to 3 decimal places.)

B)As x increases, does the value of r imply that y should tend to increase or decrease? Explain your answer.
