This table shows 10 observations of a pair of variables (x,y). The variables x and y are positively correlated, with a correlation coefficient of 0.977. Find the slope, b, of the least squares regression line, y=ax+b, for these data: X 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 11 Y 2 4 5 8 9 12 13 14 15 16

urgent help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sum_{2}^{16}Y=a*\sum_{1}^{11}X +nB\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

put the values in it to get an equation\[\sum_{?}^{?}XY=a*\sum_{?}^{?}X^2+b \sum_{?}^{?}X\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the key word you have there is CORRELATION just plot the points approximate the slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no your super wrong you have to actually workit out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i didnt even understand the formula that other dude gave me.. sorry dude

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the other formula was series if you gone through or done that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

have you done series?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is about two- variable data

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we passed series

OpenStudy (anonymous):

reply

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y can you understand that formula then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

neways?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im drifting

OpenStudy (anonymous):
