Answer the following questions. If solution is needed, please show it completely.
1. The heights (in centimeters) and weight (in kilograms) of 10 basketball players on a team
are:
Height (X) 186 189 190 192 193 193 198 201 203 205
Weight (Y) 85 85 86 90 87 91 93 103 100 101
Calculate:
i.) The regression line of y on x. (5 points)
y= a + bx
n=10
∑x= 1950- the sum of height.
∑y= 921- the sum of weight
∑x2= 380,616 – the sum of x2
∑y2= 85,255 – the sum of y2
∑xy = 179,971- the sum of x and y
b= n(∑xy) - (∑x)(∑y)
n∑x2 – (∑x)
b= 10(179,971) – (1950)(921)
10(380,618) – (1950)2
b= 1,799,710 – 1,795,950
3,806,180 – 3,802,500
b= 3,760
3,680
b= 1.02173913 or 1
_ _ _
a= y – bx y=92.1 – sum of the y(height) ÷ 10
_
x= 195- sum of the x(weidght) ÷ 10
a= 92.1 – 1(195)
a= 102.9 ≈ 103
Regression equation: y=a+bx
y=103+1(10)
y= 113
ii.) The estimated weight of a player who measures 208 cm. (3 points)
2. The following table summarizes the results of an aptitude test given to six clerks to determine
the correlation between test scores (x) and sales in the first month (y) in hundreds of dollars.
X 25 42 33 54 29 36
Y 42 72 50 90 45 48
Calculate the regression line of y on x and predict the sales of a vendor who obtains 47 on the
test. ( 7 points)
