Answer:

a) Figure attached

b) If we see the scatter plot we can conclude that the possible relation between x and y is linear and with a positive correlation since when the values of x increases the values for y increases as well.

c) Cov (X,Y) = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar X)(y_i -\bar Y)}{n-1}

We can find the numerator like this:

\sum_{i=1}^5 (6-16)(6-10)+(11-16)(9-10)+(15-16)(6-10)+(21-16)(17-10)+(27-16)(12-10)=106

And then:

Cov(X,Y) = \frac{106}{5-1}=26.5

d) r=\frac{5(906)-(80)(50)}{\sqrt{[5(1552) -(80)^2][5(586) -(50)^2]}}=0.693  

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

For this part we use excel in order to create the scatterplot and we got the result on the figure attached.

Part b

If we see the scatter plot we can conclude that the possible relation between x and y is linear and with a positive correlation since when the values of x increases the values for y increases as well.

Part c

The sample covariance is defined as:

Cov (X,Y) = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar X)(y_i -\bar Y)}{n-1}

We can find the numerator like this:

\sum_{i=1}^5 (6-16)(6-10)+(11-16)(9-10)+(15-16)(6-10)+(21-16)(17-10)+(27-16)(12-10)=106

And then:

Cov(X,Y) = \frac{106}{5-1}=26.5

Part d

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.

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]}}  

For our case we have this:

n=5 \sum x = 80, \sum y = 50, \sum xy = 906, \sum x^2 =1552, \sum y^2 =586  

r=\frac{5(906)-(80)(50)}{\sqrt{[5(1552) -(80)^2][5(586) -(50)^2]}}=0.693  

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.693

OLga [1]
It depends how you name the sides of triangle.
Look at picture at the result.

cos\alpha=\frac{12}{13}\\
cos\beta=\frac{5}{13}

PS. Sorry for my terrible drawing but I did it as fast as possible :)

The slope of the line is \frac{2}{1} (or just 2) as it rises by 2 units and runs to the left by 1 unit.

Plz help I need bt tonight
JulijaS [17]

The answer is 25%.

First: work out the difference between the two numbers you are comparing.  

Decrease = Original Number - New Number

35-28=7


Then: divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.  % Decrease = Decrease ÷ Original Number × 100


7÷

28=.25

.25*100=25

3/10 x 5 in a fraction
JulsSmile [24]

Answer: 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3/10 * 5

3/10 * 5/1

this can be simplified, the 5 cancels out and the 10 becomes a 2

3/2*1/1 = 3/2
