Question

The following data represent the calories and sugar, in grams, of various breakfast cereals.

Product	Calories	Sugar
A	340	13.3
B	430	2.8
C	450	25.3
D	500	26.6
E	530	19.2
F	580	26.0
G	590	23.2

a. Compute the covariance.

Definition Definition Measure of how two random variables change together. Covariance indicates the joint variability or the directional relationship between two variables. When two variables change in the same direction (i.e., if they either increase or decrease together), they have a positive covariance. When the change is in opposite directions (i.e., if one increases and the other decreases), the two variables have a a negative covariance.
