Below you can find father and sons heights in inches.

FATHER'S HEIGHTS (x) : 63    67 64 60 65 67    59    60

SON'S HEIGHTS (y) : 61.6 66.7    65.3 61.0    65.4    67.4    60.9    63.1

1. calculate the correlation coefficient between x and y

2. Test if there is a linear correlation between x and y under a significance level of 0.01.

3. find regression line between x and y if linear correlation exists. Predict sons height if father is 66 inches.
