1. Numerator:
2. Denominator:
For XX:
For YY:
Now that we have the numerator and denominator, we can compute the final value for rr:
r=−444474.83≈−0.935r = \frac{-444}{474.83} \approx -0.935
Step 5: Interpretation
The Pearson correlation coefficient r≈−0.935r \approx -0.935 indicates a strong negative linear
relationship between the age of the car and its resale value. This means that as the age of the
car increases, its resale value tends to decrease, and this relationship is quite strong.

Question # 02
To construct a frequency distribution table, we first need to divide the given data into 6 classes
starting from 0.0−0.90.0 - 0.9 and proceed with equal intervals.
0.5,1.0,1.5,1.5,1.0,2.0,2.5,2.0,3.0,2.5,3.5,3.5,4.0,4.5,3.0,3.0,2.5,2.0,1.0,0.5,2.5,3.0,4.0,3.5,4.5,5.0,
5.5,5.0,4.0,3.5,2.0,1.5,2.0,2.5,3.5,4.0,4.5,5.5,5.0,5.0,4.0,3.0,2.0,1.0,0.5,0.5,1.5,2.5,3.5,4.50.5, 1.0,
1.5, 1.5, 1.0, 2.0, 2.5, 2.0, 3.0, 2.5, 3.5, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 3.0, 3.0, 2.5, 2.0, 1.0, 0.5, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, 3.5,
4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 5.0, 4.0, 3.5, 2.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.5, 5.0, 5.0, 4.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0, 0.5, 0.5,
1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5
The smallest value is 0.5, and the largest value is 5.5. Therefore, the range is:
We start with 0.0−0.90.0 - 0.9, and continue with intervals of width 1.01.0 for the subsequent
classes:
0.0−0.90.0 - 0.9
1.0−1.91.0 - 1.9
2.0−2.92.0 - 2.9
3.0−3.93.0 - 3.9
4.0−4.94.0 - 4.9
5.0−5.95.0 - 5.9
Now, we count how many values from the dataset fall into each class:
Cumulative Frequency
Class Interval Frequency
(CF)
0.0 - 0.9 4 4
1.0 - 1.9 8 12
2.0 - 2.9 10 22
3.0 - 3.9 12 34
4.0 - 4.9 12 46
5.0 - 5.9 8 54
54 172
