    r symbolizes a value of the linear correlation coefficient calculated for from the specific paired sample data in the sample.

    ρ is a Spearman's rank correlation coefficient or Spearman's rho that symbolizes a parameter that represents the value of the linear correlation coefficient that would be computed by using ranks all of the paired data in the population for all statistics students.

    r is estimated to be zero , since there's no correlation between body temperature and head circumference.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Spearman's rank correlation coefficient or Spearman's rho is a nonparametric measure of rank correlation
