A survey was conducted to study the relationship between expenditure on accommodation (X) and expenditure on Food and Entertainment (Y) and the following results were obtained:
| Details | Mean | SD |
| Expenditure on Accommodation (₹) | 178 | 63.15 |
| Expenditure on Food and Entertainment (₹) | 47.8 | 22.98 |
| Coefficient of Correlation | 0.43 | |
