Question
Compute the product moment coefficient of correlation for the following data:
n = 100, `bar x` = 62, `bary` = 53, `sigma_x` = 10, `sigma_y` = 12
`Sigma (x_i - bar x) (y_i - bary) = 8000`

Solution
Given : n = 100, `bar x` = 62, `bary` = 53, `sigma_x` = 10, `sigma_y` = 12
`Sigma (x_i - bar x) (y_i - bary) = 8000`
Cov (X,Y) = `(Sigma (x_i - bar x) (y_i - bary))/n`
= `8000/100`
Cov (X,Y) = 80
Product moment correlation coefficient.
r = `(cov(X,Y))/(sigmax sigmay)`
= `80/(10 xx 12)`
r = 0.667

For a bivariate data `barx = 10`, `bary = 12`, V(X) = 9, σy = 4 and r = 0.6
Estimate y when x = 5
Solution: Line of regression of Y on X is
`"Y" - bary = square ("X" - barx)`
∴ Y − 12 = `r.(σ_y)/(σ_x)("X" - 10)`
∴ Y − 12 = `0.6 xx 4/square ("X" - 10)`
∴ When x = 5
Y − 12 = `square(5 - 10)`
∴ Y − 12 = −4
∴ Y = `square`
