In: Statistics and Probability
a) Scatter Plot
b) H0: they are not positively correlated
H1: they are positively correlated
c) From the given data
X | Y | X^2 | Y^2 | XY | |
5 | 12 | 25 | 144 | 60 | |
6 | 19 | 36 | 361 | 114 | |
7 | 29 | 49 | 841 | 203 | |
8 | 37 | 64 | 1369 | 296 | |
9 | 45 | 81 | 2025 | 405 | |
Total: | 35 | 142 | 255 | 4740 | 1078 |
c) Test for correlation Coefficient:
Thus we conclude that X and Y are positive correlation
e) From the given table
f) Given Year = 2021
i.e. X = Year - 2010
= 2021 - 2010 = 11
The prediction income of the year 2021 is
Y-hat = 8.4(11) - 30.4
= 62 sales in millions
