Help me with a quick question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you looking for a number or is it a word answer

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: we have to apply the formula which gives the value of the coefficient r

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Michele_Laino Can you help? @red_x I THINK a number.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

Here is your formula: \[r = \frac{{\sum {\left( {{x_i} - \bar x} \right)\left( {{y_i} - \bar y} \right)} }}{{\sum {{{\left( {{x_i} - \bar x} \right)}^2}\sum {{{\left( {{y_i} - \bar y} \right)}^2}} } }}\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

where \[{\bar x},\; {\bar y}\] are the mean values of x and y respectively

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Michele_Laino 0.866?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

Sincerely I don't made the computation, but if you have applied that formula correctly then, you got the right answer

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

generally the value of r is close to 1, so I think you got the right result
