Solution

Given: bYX = 0.4, bXY = 0.9,

var(x) = 9; var(y) =?

r = `+-sqrt("b"_"YX"."b"_"XY")`

= `+-sqrt(0.4 xx 0.9)`

= `+-sqrt0.36`

r = 0.6

∵ `"b"_"YX" - "b"_"XY" > 0`

var(x) = 9

`sigma_"X" = sqrt("var(x)")`

= `sqrt9 = 3`

Now, `"b"_"YX" = "r" xx sigma_"Y"/sigma_"X"`

∴ `0.4 = 0.6 xx sigma_"Y"/3`

∴ `0.4 = 0.2 xx sigma_"Y"`

∴ `sigma_"Y" = 0.4/0.2 = 2`

var(y) = `sigma_"y"^2`

= 22 = 4

∴ `sigma^2` = 4

∴  The value of variance of Y is 4.

Mean of x = 25

Mean of y = 20

`sigma_x` = 4

`sigma_y` = 3

r = 0.5

byx = `square`

bxy = `square`

when x = 10,

`y - square = square (10 - square)`

∴ y = `square`


x y xy x2 y2
6 9 54 36 81
2 11 22 4 121
10 5 50 100 25
4 8 32 16 64
8 7 `square` 64 49
Total = 30 Total = 40 Total = `square` Total = 220 Total = `square`

bxy = `square/square`

byx = `square/square`

∴ Regression equation of x on y is `square`

∴ Regression equation of y on x is `square`


bXY . bYX = ______.
