Note: The correlation coefficient and regression coefficient between two variables x and y is given as: r = Σ[(x - x̄)(y - ȳ)] / √[Σ(x - x̄)² * Σ(y - ȳ)²] where: - Sample correlation coefficient r - Sample size n - Value of the independent variable x - Value of the dependent variable y The standard error of the correlation coefficient is given as: SE(r) = √[(1 - r²) / (n - 2)] where: - Standard error of correlation coefficient SE(r) - Sample size n

Let $X$ and $Y$ be independent random variables with means $\mu_{1}, \mu_{2}$ and variances $\sigma_{1}^{2}, \sigma_{2}^{2}$. Determine the correlation coefficient of $X$ and $Z=X-Y$ in terms of $\mu_{1}, \mu_{2}, \sigma_{1}^{2}, \sigma_{2}^{2}$.

How is R2 related to the sample correlation coefficient? Recall the correlation coefficient for random variables X and Y, defined as p = Cov(X, Y) / sqrt(Var(X) * Var(Y)). The sample correlation coefficient for the observed data x and y is given by r = Cov(x, y) / sqrt(Var(x) * Var(y)). Show that the R2 of the simple linear regression model (1) of Chapter 2 is the square of the sample correlation coefficient between x and y, R2 = r^2.
