Explanation / Answer

Q2.

PART A.

calculation procedure for correlation

to caluclate value of r( x,y) = covariance ( x,y ) / sd (x) * sd (y)

covariance ( x,y ) = [ x*y - N *(x/N) * (y/N) ]/n-1 = 85.1

and now to calculate r( x,y) = cov(x,y) / SD(x) * SD(y)

value of correlation is = r(x,y) = 85.1 / (14.8)*(23.4) = 0.24572

coeffcient of determination = r^2 = 0.0603

properties of correlation

1. If r = 1 Corrlation is called Perfect Positive Corrlelation

2. If r = -1 Correlation is called Perfect Negative Correlation

3. If r = 0 Correlation is called Zero Correlation

PART B.

& with above we conclude that correlation ( r ) is = 0.24572> 0 ,weak positive correlation
