Correlation coefficient and regression


Question 1:

a) Given n = 10, σ x = 4.5, σ y = 3.6 and sum of the product of deviation from the mean of X and Y is 64 find the correlation co-efficient.
 
b) Given that X = 4y + 5 and Y = kx + 4 are the lines of regression of X on Y and Y on X respectives show that 0 < 4k < 1. If K = 1, find the means of the two variables and coefficient of correlation between them.
