Researchers notice that access to food may be related to later success in secondary education. Researchers formulate a hypothesis that says: teenagers are more likely to graduate high school in cities with more food banks per capita compared to cities that have fewer food banks per capita. They run a pilot study with n = 4 neighborhood blocks, sampled randomly across cities in the U.S. Here, x = number of food banks in the target city and y = number of high school graduates in a 4x4 block radius. The data are presented in the table below. What is the correlation between access to food banks (x) and high school graduation (y)? a) Calculate the sum of products b) Calculate Pearson’s r
