Being able to find common ground with someone allows for a few different things;
- It can help you reach a compromise when there is conflict
- Common ground allows for more discussions and agreements
- It can help you make friends or be social with other people as you will have "common" things to talk about

Answer:
1. Co-variance= -1.2
2. correlation coefficient= -0.4404
3. There is weak negative relationship between x and y.
Explanation:
1.
Co-variance= Cov(x,y)= sum[(x-xbar)(y-ybar)]/n
xbar=sumx/n=32/5=6.4
ybar=sumy/n=35/5=7
x 7 8 5 3 9
x-xbar 0.6 1.6 -1.4 -3.4 2.6
y 7 5 9 7 7
y-ybar 0 -2 2 0 0
(x-xbar)(y-ybar) 0 -3.2 -2.8 0 0
Cov(x,y)= sum[(x-xbar)(y-ybar)]/n=-6/5=-1.2
Cov(x,y)=-1.2
2.
correlation coefficient=r
![r=\frac{sum(x-xbar)(y-ybar)}{\sqrt{sum(x-xbar)^2sum(y-ybar)^2} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D%5Cfrac%7Bsum%28x-xbar%29%28y-ybar%29%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7Bsum%28x-xbar%29%5E2sum%28y-ybar%29%5E2%7D%20%7D)
x 7 8 5 3 9
x-xbar 0.6 1.6 -1.4 -3.4 2.6
y 7 5 9 7 7
y-ybar 0 -2 2 0 0
(x-xbar)(y-ybar) 0 -3.2 -2.8 0 0
(x-xbar)² 0.36 2.56 1.96 11.56 6.76
(y-ybar)² 0 4 4 0 0
![r=\frac{-6}{\sqrt{23.2(8)} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D%5Cfrac%7B-6%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B23.2%288%29%7D%20%7D)
r=-0.4404
3. Since the value of correlation coefficient is negative and less than 0.5 , so, we can say that there is weak negative relationship between x and y.
