Two pair misread values. A computer while calculating
the correlation coefficient.between two variables x and y obtained
the following constants : N=25, Ex=125, Ex=650, Ey-100,
Ey=460, Exy=508.
It was however later discovered at the time of checking that
be had copied down two pairs of observations as (6, 14), (8, 6) while
the correct values were (8, 12), (6, 8). Obtain the correct value of
the correlation coefficient between x and y.
