You have same question with K. Are you classmates?

Correlation (I only solve your first three questions)

Use the paired data shown below

X 10 9 6 5 4 12 11 8 7 5 9 8 6 6 4
Y 23 22 15 15 10 26 26 26 21 16 12 19 16 16 11

• Use Graph Paper and Create a Scatter Plot for the Data

• Create a table which shows the x’s, y’s, xy, x^2 and y^2 and their column sums.

• Calculate “r” for the Correlation.

• Calculate the Equation of the Best Fit Line in the form y = mx + b

• Use your Best Fit Line to predict y if x= 13

• Use a ruler and draw your Best Fit Line on your Scatter Plot using the y–intercept
and the point that you got for x =13Solution:

• Create a table which shows the x’s, y’s, xy, x^2 and y^2 and their
column sums.

column
sum: 110 274 2162 894 5426
• Calculate “r” for the Correlation.

Substitute the following values in the formula:

= 2162 =894

=110 =5426

=274 = 15

Th above values are based on the computed column values

15 ( 2162 )− (110 ) ( 274 )

r=
√ 15 ( 894 )− (110 )2 √ 15 (5426 )−( 274 )2
r=0. 7962
