Answer:

(a) Shown below

(b) There is a positive relation between the number of assemblers and production.

(c) The correlation coefficient is 0.9272.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of assemblers and Y = number of units produced in an hour.

(a)

Consider the scatter plot below.

(b)

Based on the scatter plot it can be concluded that there is a positive relationship between the variables X and Y, i.e. as the value of X increases Y also increases.

(c)

The formula to compute the correlation coefficient is:

$r=\frac{n\sum XY-\sum X\sum Y}{\sqrt{[n\sum X^{2}-(\sum X)^{2}][n\sum Y^{2}-(\sum Y)^{2}]}} }$

Compute the correlation coefficient between X and Y as follows:

$r=\frac{n\sum XY-\sum X\sum Y}{\sqrt{[n\sum X^{2}-(\sum X)^{2}][n\sum Y^{2}-(\sum Y)^{2}]}} }=\frac{(5\times430)-(15\times120)}{\sqrt{[(5\times55)-15^{2}][(5\times3450)-120^{2}]}} =0.9272$
