Correlation and Regression Lines - A Quick Recap #1

Here are the test scores of 10 students in physics and history:

Physics Scores 15 12 8 8 7 7 7 6 5 3

History Scores 10 25 17 11 13 17 20 13 9 15

Compute Karl Pearson’s coefficient of correlation between these scores. Compute the answer correct to three decimal places.

Output Format

In the text box, enter the floating point/decimal value required. Do not leave any leading or trailing spaces. Your answer may look like: 0.255

This is NOT the actual answer - just the format in which you should provide your answer.

Correlation and Regression Lines - A Quick Recap #4

The two regression lines of a bivariate distribution are:

4x – 5y + 33 = 0 (line of y on x)

20x – 9y – 107 = 0 (line of x on y).

Estimate the value of x when y = 7. Compute the correct answer to one decimal place.

Output Format

In the text box, enter the floating point/decimal value required. Do not lead any leading or trailing spaces. Your answer may look like: 7.2

This is NOT the actual answer - just the format in which you should provide your answer.

x=[i for i in range(0,20)]

'''
    4x - 5y + 33 = 0
    x = ( 5y - 33 ) / 4
    y = ( 4x + 33 ) / 5
    
    20x - 9y - 107 = 0
    x = (9y + 107)/20
    y = (20x - 107)/9
'''
t=7
print( ( 9 * t + 107 ) / 20 )

Correlation and Regression Lines - A Quick Recap #5

The two regression lines of a bivariate distribution are:

4x – 5y + 33 = 0 (line of y on x)

20x – 9y – 107 = 0 (line of x on y).

find the variance of y when σx= 3.

Compute the correct answer to one decimal place.

Output Format

In the text box, enter the floating point/decimal value required. Do not lead any leading or trailing spaces. Your answer may look like: 7.2

This is NOT the actual answer - just the format in which you should provide your answer.

Q.3. If the two regression lines of a bivariate distribution are 4x – 5y + 33 = 0 and 20x – 9y – 107 = 0,

  • calculate the arithmetic means of x and y respectively.
  • estimate the value of x when y = 7. - find the variance of y when σx = 3.
Solution : –

We have,

4x – 5y + 33 = 0 => y = 4x/5 + 33/5 ————— (i)

And

20x – 9y – 107 = 0 => x = 9y/20 + 107/20 ————- (ii)

(i) Solving (i) and (ii) we get, mean of x = 13 and mean of y = 17.[Ans.]

(ii) Second line is line of x on y

x = (9/20) × 7 + (107/20) = 170/20 = 8.5 [Ans.]

(iii) byx = r(σy/σx) => 4/5 = 0.6 × σy/3 [r = √(byx.bxy) = √{(4/5)(9/20)]= 0.6 => σy = (4/5)(3/0.6) = 4 [Ans.]

variance= σ**2=> 16
