Objective: Understanding the relationship between two variables, learning how to compute
correlation and regression in Excel and interpreting results to make informed decisions.
Instructions
1. Software Requirement-Use Microsoft Excel.
2. Data
Odd Roll Nos. will work on variables- X: age and Y: trestbps
Even Roll Nos. will work on variables- X: age and Y: thalach
3. Random Sample Generation:
Each student should create a random sample from X and Y with sample size or no. of
observations=20+ (sum of digits of your roll no.) Eg. If Roll No=45, then 20+(4+5) =29
4. Assignment Tasks
Part A: Correlation
1. Import the given dataset into Excel.
2. Capture the screenshots showing the formula/command used to generate the random
samples from both the variables in the dataset.
3. Create the scatter plot to represent the correlation between the two variables.
4. Calculate the correlation coefficient.
5. Include a screenshot of formula of correlation coefficient.
6. Interpret the type of correlation (positive, negative, no correlation) and degree of
correlation (strong, moderate, weak).
