Karl Pearson's coefficient of skewness of a distribution is 0.32.Its s.d.is 6.5 and mean is 29.6.The mode and median of the distribution are

  1. 27.52,28.91

  2. 26.92,27.23

  3. 25.67,26.34

  4. none of these

A Correct answer
Explanation

Karl Pearson's coefficient of skewness $\displaystyle =\frac{Mean-Mode}{S.D.}$ $\displaystyle \therefore 0.32=\frac{29.6-Mode}{6.5}\Rightarrow Mode=27.52$ Also Karl Pearson's coeff.of skewness $\displaystyle =\frac{3\left ( Mean-Median \right )}{S.D}$ $\displaystyle \because 0.32=\frac{3\left ( 29.6-Median \right )}{6.5}$ $\displaystyle \Rightarrow Median=28.91$

The sum of the deviations of the variates 6,8,10,16,20,24 

  1. -1

  2. 1

  3. 0

  4. 4

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

$\Rightarrow$   $Mean = \dfrac{6+8+10+16+20+24}{6}=14$

$\Rightarrow$   Sum of the deviations = $(6-14)+(8-14)+(10-14)+(16-14)+(20-14)+(24-14)$
$\Rightarrow$   Sum of the deviation = $-8-6-4+2+6+10$
$\therefore$    Sum of the deviation = $-18+18$
$\therefore$    Sum of the deviation = $0$

Calculate Pearson's coefficient of correlation between the values of $X$ and $Y$.

X 1 2 3 4 5
Y 7 6 5 4 3
  1. $-0.3$
  2. $0.3$
  3. $1$
  4. $-1$

Explanation
$X\\ 1\\ 2\\ 3\\ 4\\ 5\\ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \\ \overline { x } \cfrac { 15 }{ 5 } =3$                $Y\\ 7\\ 6\\ 5\\ 4\\ 3\\ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \\ \overline { y } =\cfrac { 25 }{ 5 } =5$                  $Y=y-\overline { y } \\ \quad 02\\ \quad 01\\ \quad 00\\ -1\\ -1\\ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \\ \quad 0$                    $XY\\ -4\\ -1\\ \quad 0\\ -1\\ -4\\ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \\ \sum { XY=-10 } $                 ${ X }^{ 2 }\\ 4\\ 1\\ 0\\ 1\\ 4\\ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \\ \sum { { X }^{ 2 }=10 } $        

${ Y }^{ 2 }\\ 4\\ 1\\ 0\\ 1\\ 4\\ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \ _ \\ \sum { { Y }^{ 2 }=10 } $

Therefore, $r=\cfrac { \sum { XY }  }{ \sqrt { \sum { { X }^{ 2 }\sum { { Y }^{ 2 } }  }  }  } \\ =\cfrac { -10 }{ \sqrt { 10*10 }  } \\ =\cfrac { -10 }{ 10 } \\ =-1.$

For $ n=25,\sum x=125,\sum x^2=650,\sum y=100,\sum y^2=460,\sum xy=508$, correlation coefficient is 

  1. $0.99$
  2. $0.207$
  3. $0.66$
  4. $0.89$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

$n=25$

$\sum x=125,\ \sum{{x}^{2}}=650,\ \sum{xy}=334$  $\sum y=100,\ \sum{{y}^{2}}=508$
$r=\cfrac { n\sum { xy } -(\sum { x } \times \sum { y } ) }{ \sqrt { (n\sum { { x }^{ 2 } } -\sum { { x }^{ 2 } } )(n\sum { { y }^{ 2 } } -\sum { { y }^{ 2 } } ) }  } =\cfrac { 25\times 508 -100\times 125 }{ \sqrt { (25\times 650 -{ 125 }^{ 2 }  )(25\times 460 -{100}^{2}) }  }=0.207 $

$n=25,\sum x=125,\sum x^2=650, \sum y=100,\sum y^2=460,\sum xy=508$. It was observed that two pair of values of $(x,y)$ were copied as $ (6,14)$ and $(8,6) $ instead of $(8,12),(6,8).$ The correct correlation coefficient is 

  1. $0.667$
  2. $0.87$
  3. $-0.25$
  4. $0.356$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Corrected $\sum x=125-6-8+8+6=125$

Corrected $\sum y=100-14-6+12+8=100$
Corrected $\sum x^2=650-(6)^2-(8)^2+(6)^2+(8)^2=650$
Corrected $\sum y^2=460-(14)^2-(6)^2+(12)^2+(8)^2=436$
Corrected $\sum xy=508-6\times 18-8\times 6+8\times 12+6\times 8=520$
The formula for Pearson product moment correlation is
$r=\dfrac{n\sum xy-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2-(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2-(\sum y)^2]}}$

    $=\dfrac{25\times 520-125\times 100}{\sqrt{[25\times 650-(125)^2][25\times 436-(100)^2]}}$

   $=\dfrac{13000-12500}{\sqrt{[16250-15625][10900-10000]}}$

   $=\dfrac{500}{\sqrt{[625][900]}}$

   $=\dfrac{500}{(25)(30)}$

   $=\dfrac{2}{3}$

   $=0.667$

A Correct answer
Explanation

A linear regression line has an equation of the form $Y=a+bX$


where $Y$ is called dependent variable or response or regressand
$X$ is called independent variable or predictors or explanatory variable or regressor
$a$ is the y-intercept and
$b$ is the slope of the line.
