Question
Reading is fundamental to a teenager's ability to perform well in school. Assume a researcher is
interested in the ability of the number of books read over the summer to predict ACT Reading
scores. Using a random sample of 10 random high school students the researchers recorded the
number of books read over the summer and the students' ACT Reading scores.
Books Read (X) ACT Score (Y) (X- Xmean)
(Y - Ymean)
(X-Xmean)(Y-Ymean) (X-Xmean)?
(Y - Ymean)?
