+ The joint and marginal distributions of X and Y are given below. + Find \Cov(X, Y) and \rho_{X, Y}. +

+ \Cov(X, Y) = \E(XY) - \E(X)\E(Y). We have: + + \E(X) \amp = 0(0.35) + 1(0.65) = 0.65 + \E(Y) \amp = 1(0.25) + 2(0.35) + 3(0.4) = 2.15 + \E(XY) \amp = (0)(1)(0.1) + (0)(2)(0.15) + (0)(3)(0.1) + + \amp \quad\, (1)(1)(0.15) + (1)(2)(0.2) + (1)(3)(0.3) = 1.45 \\ + \Cov(X, Y) \amp = 1.45 - (0.65)(2.15) = \boxed{0.0525} + + Since X is an indicator random variable, we have \Var(X) = (0.65)(0.35) = 0.2275. + For \Var(Y): + + \E(Y^2) \amp = 1^2(0.25) + 2^2(0.35) + 3^2(0.4) = 5.25 + \Var(Y) \amp = \E(Y^2) - (\E(Y))^2 = 5.25 - (2.15)^2 = 0.6275 + + So the correlation is: + + \rho_{X, Y} \amp = \frac{\Cov(X, Y)}{\sqrt{\Var(X)\Var(Y)}} = \frac{0.0525}{\sqrt{(0.2275)(0.6275)}} \approx \boxed{0.139}. + +

+ A sample of 30 measurements are taken and a best fit line is calculated, resulting in the data below (the final row of the table shows the sums for each column). + Find the RSS, SST, and coefficient of determination. +

+
+ + +

+ The RSS is the sum of res^2, 953.03, and the SST is the sum of (y - \textrm{avg})^2, 38397.35. + Then the coefficient of determination is: + + r^2 = 1 - \frac{\text{RSS}}{\text{SST}} = 1 - \frac{953.03}{38397.35} \approx \boxed{0.975} + +
