Answer:

n=5 \sum x = 103, \sum y = 177, \sum xy= 2088, \sum x^2 =1379, \sum y^2 =3359  

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}

r=\frac{10(2088)-(103)(177)}{\sqrt{[10(1379) -(103)^2][10(3359) -(177)^2]}}=0.9877

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.9877

And the determination coefficient for this case would be:

r^2 = 0.9877^2 = 0.9757 = 97.57 \%

And the correct option for this case would be:

A. The value of Upper R squared is 97.57​%, which is the percentage of variance in Sales that can be accounted for by the regression of Sales on Number of Sales People working.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

For this case we have the following data:

N. sal. peop.  work.            Sales (in $1000)

2                                                  10

3                                                  12

6                                                  14

8                                                  15

10                                                 17

10                                                 19

11                                                  19

16                                                 23

17                                                 23

20                                                25

We assume that the Number of Sales represent (X) and Sales (in $1000) represent (Y), we have this:

n=5 \sum x = 103, \sum y = 177, \sum xy= 2088, \sum x^2 =1379, \sum y^2 =3359  

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}

r=\frac{10(2088)-(103)(177)}{\sqrt{[10(1379) -(103)^2][10(3359) -(177)^2]}}=0.9877

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.9877

And the determination coefficient for this case would be:

r^2 = 0.9877^2 = 0.9757 = 97.57 \%

And the correct option for this case would be:

A. The value of Upper R squared is 97.57​%, which is the percentage of variance in Sales that can be accounted for by the regression of Sales on Number of Sales People working.
