Solution
Given, `bar x = 7.6, bar y = 14.8, sigma_x = 3.2, sigma_y = 16` and r = 0.7
`"b"_"XY" = "r" sigma_"X"/sigma_"Y" = 0.7 xx 3.2/16 = 0.14`
`"a"' = bar x - "b"_"XY" bar y`
= 7.6 - 0.14 × 14.8 = 7.6 - 2.072 = 5.528
The regression equation of X on Y is
X = a' + bXY Y
∴ X = 5.528 + 0.14 Y
For Y = 10
X = 5.528 + 0.14 × 10 = 5.528 + 1.4 = 6.928
