Solution

Let 10y = 3x + 170 be the regression equation of Y on X.

∴ The equation becomes 10y = 3x + 170

i.e., Y = `3/10 "X" + 170/10`

Comparing it with Y = bYX X + a, we get

`"b"_"YX" = 3/10`

Now other equation 5x + 70 = 6y be the regression equation of X on Y.

∴ The equation becomes 5x = 6y – 70

i.e., X = `6/5 "Y" - 70/5`

Comparing it with X = bXY Y + a', we get

`"b"_"XY" = 6/5`

∴ r = `+-sqrt("b"_"XY" * "b"_"YX") = +-sqrt(6/5 xx 3/10) = +- sqrt(9/25) +- 3/5`

Since bYX and bXY both are positive,

r is positive.

∴ r = `3/5` = 0.6

Now, two correlated lines of regression are

10y = 3x + 170

i.e., - 3x + 10y = 170   …(i)

and 5x + 70 = 6y

i.e., 5x - 6y = –70       …(ii)

By (i) × 5 + (ii) × 3, we get

- 15x + 50y = 850
+ 15x - 18y = - 210 
  32y = 640

∴ y = 20

Substituting y = 20 in equation (i), we get

- 3x +10(20) = 170

∴ - 3x + 200 = 170

∴ 3x = 200 - 170

∴ x = 10

Since the point of intersection of two regression lines is `(bar x, bar y)`,

`bar x` = mean value of X = 10, and

`bar y` = mean value of Y = 20.
