Correlation
Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.
Linear Correlation
A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.
Regression Analysis
Regression analysis is a statistical method in which it estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variable. In simple terms dependent variable is called as outcome variable and independent variable is called as predictors. Regression analysis is one of the methods to find the trends in data. The independent variable used in Regression analysis is named Predictor variable. It offers data of an associated dependent variable regarding a particular outcome.
![**Title: Analyzing the Relationship Between Study Hours and Test Scores**
**Description:**
This exercise involves finding the equation of the regression line for the given data. You will construct a scatter plot and draw the regression line to explore the significant correlation between variables. The aim is to predict the test scores based on hours spent studying.
**Data Table: Hours vs. Test Scores**
| Hours spent studying, x | Test score, y |
|-------------------------|---------------|
| 2 | 38 |
| 2.5 | 44 |
| 3 | 50 |
| 5 | 47 |
| 5 | 61 |
| 6 | 68 |
**Tasks:**
1. **Find the regression equation**:
- Regression equation: \( \hat{y} = 6.269x + 32.48 \)
- The slope (rounded to three decimal places) is 6.269.
- The y-intercept (rounded to two decimal places) is 32.48.
2. **Choose the correct graph**:
- Four graph options (A, B, C, D) are provided to visualize the data and regression line.
**Graph Analysis:**
- The graphs display test scores vs. hours spent studying.
- A correct graph would show a scatter plot aligning with the calculated regression line, demonstrating the positive correlation between study time and scores.
Users are instructed to select the graph that correctly represents the data and regression analysis.
**Predictive Use:**
Use this regression equation to predict test scores for different study durations:
- (a) \(x = 2\) hours
- (b) \(x = 2.5\) hours
- (c) \(x = 12\) hours
- (d) \(x = 4.5\) hours
