X 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
y 6 7 5 4 3 1 2

Estimate the value of y when x ix 101.

Let The regression equation of y on x is
Y = a + bx+E………… (i)

Hence, the fitted equation of y on x is

Y= 7.143-0.857x,
 7. The following table gives the ages and blood pressure of ten women.
Age 56 42 36 47 49 42 60 72 63 55
B.P. 150 149 160 155 140 145 125 118 125 147

Find the correlation coefficient between age and b.p.

Determine the least square regression equation to estimate the blood pressure of the women
whose age is 45.
Solution: Let X = age in years, Y = blood pressure

i.

r= 0.892, high degree positive correlation between age and blood pressure.

Let the regression equation of Y on X is , Y = a + bx+E

Hence the fitted equation is Y = 198.452-1.093X
