Aparticularly powerful hurricane's force winds extended 120 miles from its center. this hurricane was a big storm, and that affects how we think about the prediction errors. suppose we add 120 miles to each error to get an idea of how far from the predicted track we might still find damaging winds. explain what would happen to the correlation between prediction error and year, and why.
