Answer:
I will show the way.
Step-by-step explanation:
r is the correlation coefficient
To find SSxy
SSxy= ∑- ∑
To find SSxx
SSxy= ∑- ∑x/n
To find SSyy
SSxy= ∑- ∑y/n
if your r is near +1, it shows strong positive correlation. Y is proportional to X.
And if it nears -1, it would show strong negative correlation. Y is inversely proportional to X.
Simple,
writing out the problem...
Simplify it...
-4x(6+5-1)
-4x(11-1)
-4x(10)
-40x
Making it look like...
Cancel out the common factors...
Thus making the answer:
.
Answer:
Ratio of sweaters to dresses = 8 : 5
Sum of ratios = 13
Let number of sweater + dresses = x
27 + 2×(-why)
matches your English expression.
