Question

Let x be the percentage of 16- to 19-year-olds not in school and not high school graduates. Let y be the reported violent crimes per 1000 residents. Six small cities in Arkansas (Blytheville, El Dorado, Hot Springs, Jonesboro, Rogers, and Russellville) reported the following information about x and y.
x 23.8 19.1 17.5 14.9 19.0 17.5
y 12.9  4.5    9.5  1.3   0.8   3.6

 

a) Verify the given sums Σx, Σy, Σx2, Σy2, Σxy, and the value of the sample correlation coefficient r. (Round your value for r to four decimal places.)
