Regression Equations and Coefficients

The document discusses regression equations and correlation coefficients. It provides formulas for calculating regression equations based on summations of deviations from the mean. It notes that the correlation coefficient is the geometric mean of the regression coefficients and that the regression lines intersect at the point whose coordinates are the means. Examples are given of calculating regression coefficients and equations from data. Methods are described for estimating missing values from a partial data record using regression equations and correlation coefficients.

2) and have the same sign as
3) When there is a perfect linear correlation between and
, namely, when , the two regression lines
coincide.
4) The points of intersection of the two regression lines is
clearly the point whose co-ordinates are .
5) When there is no linear correlation between and ,
namely, when , the equations of the regression
lines become and , which are at right angles.
1) Obtain the equations of the lines from the following data.
X 22 26 29 30 31 31 34 35
Y 20 20 21 29 27 24 27 31

Hence find the coefficient of correlation between and . Also

A study of prices of rice at Chennai and Mumbai gave the following
data:
Chennai Mumbai
Mean 19.5 17.75
S.D 1.75 2.5

Also the coefficient of correlation between the two is 0.8. Estimate


the most likely price of rice (a) at Chennai corresponding to the price
of Rs. 18 at Mumbai, and (b) at Mumbai corresponding to the price
of Rs. 17 at Chennai.
