Please consider the following values for the variables X and Y. Treat each row as a pair of scores for the variables X and Y (with the first row providing the labels "X" and "Y"). X Y 2 4 4 3 6 5 7 7 11 6 Please calculate Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) for these data and report your answer below. When reporting your answer, please provide three decimal places (if relevant).

The Pearson's coefficient of correlation between the is 0.700.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient is a statistical degree that computes the strength of the linear relationship amid the relative movements of the two variables (i.e. dependent and independent).It ranges from -1 to +1.

The formula to compute correlation between two variables X and Y is:

The formula to compute covariance is:

The formula to compute the variances are:

Consider the table attached below.

Compute the covariance as follows:

Thus, the covariance is 75.

Compute the variance of X and Y as follows:

Compute the correlation coefficient as follows:

Thus, the Pearson's coefficient of correlation between the is 0.700.

because they could drop even lower..
