c. Does it appear from inspection that there is a relationship between the variables? Why or why not?

d. Calculate the least-squares line. Put the equation in the form of: ŷ = a + bx.

e. Find the correlation coefficient. Is it significant?

g. Does it appear that a line is the best way to fit the data? Why or why not? h. Are there any outliers in the data?

i. Based on these results, what would be the probate fees and taxes for an estate that does not have any assets?

5)

X: independent

Y : dependent

................

b)

c)

there appear to be linear , positive relation between x and y

...........

d)

ΣX ΣY Σ(x-x̅)² Σ(y-ȳ)² Σ(x-x̅)(y-ȳ)
total sum 139800 13850 573936000 6310250.0 53587000.00
mean 13980.00 1385.00 SSxx SSyy SSxy

sample size ,   n =   10          
here, x̅ = Σx / n=   13980.00   ,     ȳ = Σy/n =   1385.00  
                  
SSxx =    Σ(x-x̅)² =    573936000.0000          
SSxy=   Σ(x-x̅)(y-ȳ) =   53587000.0          
                  
estimated slope , ß1 = SSxy/SSxx =   53587000.0   /   573936000.000   =   0.0934
                  
intercept,   ß0 = y̅-ß1* x̄ =   79.7216          
                  
so, regression line is   Ŷ =   79.7216   +   0.0934   *x

..........................

e)

correlation coefficient ,    r = Sxy/√(Sx.Sy) =   0.8904

correlation hypothesis test      
Ho:   ρ = 0  
Ha:   ρ ╪ 0  
n=   10  
alpha,α =    0.05  
correlation , r=   0.8904  
t-test statistic = r*√(n-2)/√(1-r²) =        5.534
DF=n-2 =   8  
p-value =    0.0006  
Decison:   p value < α , So, Reject Ho  

................

f)

Predicted Y at X=   16000   is                  
Ŷ =   79.72161   +   0.093368   *   16000   =   1573.602
Predicted Y at X=   24000   is                  
Ŷ =   79.72161   +   0.093368   *   24000   =   2320.543

Predicted Y at X=   32000   is                  
Ŷ =   79.72161   +   0.093368   *   32000   =   3067.483
