The production department of Celltronics International wants to explore the relationship between the number of employees who assemble a subassembly and the number produced.

The following sample observations were randomly selected.

 

   X :    4        5         3         6      10
   Y:    4        6          5         7      7

Fill in the blanks. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

 

  The coefficient of determination obtained here indicates X accounts for approximately  relationship between X and Y. The coefficient of determination is is the dependent variable.

 

(c)

Determine the correlation coefficient. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

 

  Coefficient of correlation

correlation between the variables.

 

4)       The production department of Celltronics International wants to explore the relationship between the number of employees who assemble a subassembly and the number produced. As an experiment, two employees were assigned to assemble the subassemblies. They produced 15 during a one-hour period. Then four employees assembled them. They produced 25 during a one-hour period. The complete set of paired observations follows.

The dependent variable is production; that is, it is assumed that different levels of production result from a different number of employees.

(b)

A scatter diagram is provided below. Based on it, does there appear to be any relationship between the number of assemblers and production?
