Answer to Problem 6RE

Yes, the program is working as correctly.

Explanation of Solution

The average of x is obtained below:

Average=Sum of data valuesTotal number of data values=1+2+3+4+5+6+77=287=4

The standard deviation of x is obtained as follows:

SD=Sum of ((EntryAverage)2)Total number of data values=(14)2+(24)2+(34)2+(44)2+(54)2+(64)2+(74)27=9+4+1+0+1+4+97=4=2

The average of y is obtained below:

Average=Sum of data valuesTotal number of data values=2+1+4+3+7+5+67=287=4

The standard deviation of y is obtained as follows:

SD=Sum of ((EntryAverage)2)Total number of data values=(24)2+(14)2+(44)2+(34)2+(74)2+(54)2+(64)27=4+9+0+1+9+1+47=4=2

The value of r is obtained below:

xyx in standard unitsy in standard units(x in standard units) × (y in standard units)
12142=1.5242=1.01.5
21242=1.0142=1.51.5
34342=0.5442=00
43442=0.0342=0.50
57542=0.5742=1.50.75
65642=1.0542=0.50.5
76742=1.5642=1.01.5

r=Average of (x in standard units) × (y in standard units)=(1.5)+(1.5)+(0)+(0)+(0.75)+(0.50)+(1.5)7=5.757=0.8214

Thus, the value of r is 0.8214

The given correlation value (0.8214) and the estimated correlation value (0.8214) both are same. Therefore, yes the program is working as correctly.

Answer to Problem 6RE

No, the program is not working correctly.

Explanation of Solution

The average of x is obtained below:

The average of y is obtained below:

Average=Sum of data valuesTotal number of data values=5+4+7+6+10+8+97=497=7

The standard deviation of y is obtained as follows:

SD=Sum of ((EntryAverage)2)Total number of data values=(57)2+(47)2+(77)2+(67)2+(107)2+(87)2+(97)27=4+9+0+1+9+1+47=4=2

The value of r is obtained below:

xyx in standard unitsy in standard units(x in standard units) × (y in standard units)
15142=1.5572=1.01.5
24242=1.0472=1.51.5

68642=1.0872=0.50.50
79742=1.5972=1.01.5

r=Average of (x in standard units) × (y in standard units)=(1.5)+(1.5)+(0)+(0)+(0.75)+(0.50)+(1.50)7=5.757=0.8214

Thus, the value of r is 0.8214.

The given correlation value (0.7619) and the estimated correlation value (0.8614) both are different. Therefore, no the program is not working correctly.

Review a classmate's Main Post. 1. State if you agree or disagree with the choices made for additional analysis that can be done beyond the frequency table. 2. Choose a measure of central tendency (mean, median, mode) that you would like to compute with the data beyond the frequency table. Complete either a or b below. a. Explain how that analysis can help you understand the data better. b. If you are currently unable to do that analysis, what do you think you could do to make it possible? If you do not think you can do anything, explain why it is not possible.
