NDA 2016 Paper 2 | Statistics Question 6 | Mathematics

For 10 observations on price (x) and supply (y), the following data was obtained.

$$\Sigma$$x = 130, $$\Sigma$$y = 220, $$\Sigma$$x² = 2288, $$\Sigma$$y² = 5506 and $$\Sigma$$xy = 3467.

What is the line of regression of y on x?

y = 0.91 x + 8.74

y = 1.02 x + 8.74

y = 1.02 x $$-$$ 7.02

y = 0.91 x $$-$$ 7.02

Two variates, x and y are uncorrelated and have standard deviations $$\sigma$$_x and $$\sigma$$_y respectively. What is the correlation coefficient between x + y and x $$-$$ y ?

$${{{\sigma _x}{\sigma _y}} \over {\sigma _x^2 + \sigma _y^2}}$$

$${{{\sigma _x} + {\sigma _y}} \over {2{\sigma _x}{\sigma _y}}}$$

$${{\sigma _x^2 - \sigma _y^2} \over {\sigma _x^2 + \sigma _y^2}}$$

$${{{\sigma _y} - {\sigma _x}} \over {{\sigma _x}{\sigma _y}}}$$
