a.
Compute the Pearson correlation, showing all work, all steps, without using Excel or statistical software. Determine if there is a relationship. what type of relationship it is, and how strong or weak that relationship is, if any relationship exists. Find the linear regression equation for predicting Y from X (use the linear regression equation formula #1 from class handout). Use the regression equation that you derived (part b above) to compute
b.
C.
the predicted Y for each actual value of X. Compare the predicted Y scores to the actual Y scores. Why is there a difference between the predicted Y values and the actual Y values? How do you explain this difference?
