Text won't show up on plot I generated

[gss2124]

I generated a scatterplot and I am trying to paste the correlation of the variable on the plot itself. I used the following code and the text won't show up. Any help is appreciate.

plot(sunglasses$Ice.Cream.Sales...,sunglasses$Temperature.Celsius., xlab = "Ice Cream Sales", ylab = "Temperature (Celsius)", pch = 15, col = "Blue")
abline(lm(sunglasses$Temperature.Celsius. ~ sunglasses$Ice.Cream.Sales...), col="Red", lwd = 2)
text(paste("Correlation:", round(cor(sunglasses$Temperature.Celsius.,sunglasses$Ice.Cream.Sales...),3)),x = 15, y = 75)

@gss2124

x = 15, y = 75

Why did you choose these particular values?

[gss2124]

I was trying to see if the position of the text made a difference for how it shows up on the plot. No particular reference.

Try x as 400 and y as 24.

Any change ?

[gss2124]

Nope, did not change unfortunately

Ok. Then I recommend you try to make a reprex of your issue.

Please have a look at this guide, to see how to create one:

FAQ: How to do a minimal reproducible example ( reprex ) for beginners

A minimal reproducible example consists of the following items: A minimal dataset, necessary to reproduce the issue The minimal runnable code necessary to reproduce the issue, which can be run on the given dataset, and including the necessary information on the used packages. Let's quickly go over each one of these with examples: Minimal Dataset (Sample Data) You need to provide a data frame that is small enough to be (reasonably) pasted on a post, but big enough to reproduce your issue. Let's say, as an example, that you are working with the iris data frame head(iris) #> Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species #> 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.…

Short Version

You can share your data in a forum friendly way by passing the data to share to the dput() function.
If your data is too large you can use standard methods to reduce it before sending to dput().
When you come to share the dput() text that represents your data, please be sure to format your post with triple backticks on the line before your code begins to format it appropriately.

```
( example_df <- structure(list(Sepal.Length = c(5.1, 4.9, 4.7, 4.6, 5, 5.4, 4.6, 
5, 4.4, 4.9), Sepal.Width = c(3.5, 3, 3.2, 3.1, 3.6, 3.9, 3.4, 
3.4, 2.9, 3.1), Petal.Length = c(1.4, 1.4, 1.3, 1.5, 1.4, 1.7, 
1.4, 1.5, 1.4, 1.5), Petal.Width = c(0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 
0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.2, 0.1), Species = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 
1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L), .Label = c("setosa", "versicolor", "virginica"
), class = "factor")), row.names = c(NA, -10L), class = c("tbl_df",
