    Which one of the following statements are true?
    a)  0γ10\le\gamma\le1  
    b) If  γ=0\gamma=0  then cov(x,y)=0.

    c)  γ=(σx2+σy2(σxy)2)2σxσy\gamma=\frac{\left(\sigma_x^2+\sigma_y^2-\left(\sigma_{x-y}\right)^2\right)}{2\sigma_x\sigma_y}  

    d)  γ\gamma  is independent of change of origin and scale.

    a, b and c are true

    only c is true
