Imagine that there is a correlation of r = 0.65 between variable X and variable Y. Based on the correlation between these two variables (and only these two variables), what is a person's predicted value on variable Y, when his X value on variable X is a z score of 1.5? Please provide your answer as a z score with a minimum of three decimal places.
