Provide an example of a realworld correlation related to you

Provide an example of a real-world correlation related to your professional work (either current, past, or future). Is the correlation hypothesized to be positive or negative? What data could you collect to test your hypothesis?

Solution

people on assignment and number of hours taken to complete the project.The correlation is supposed to be positive(as number of people assigned to a specific task increases the time taken to complete the project should be less). The data can be collected by assigning same work to different sizes of teams and observe the time taken(the nature of assignment can be varied like totally novel problem to pretty standard problems).
