10 a Fill the missing observations in the table bShow that R
10. (a) Fill the missing observations in the table (b)Show that R^2 = r^2, where r is the sample correlation coefficient.
Solution
(a)
Slope b-cap = r * ( Sy/Sx) = -0.2 * (6/4) = -0.3
Y intercept a-cap = y - bx = 18 - (-0.3*30) = 27
Therefore ,
y-cap = 27 - 0.3 x-cap ------------------->Answer
(b)
Slope b-cap = r * ( Sy/Sx)
=> -2 = -0.6 * (4/Sx)
=> Sx = 1.2 Answer
Y intercept a-cap = y - bx
=> 30 = 18 - (-2)x
=> x-bar = 6 Answer
