Answer :

As per the given data, the correlation is 0.7.

Correlation:

in statistics, correlation refers the  association between two quantitative variables.

Given,

Here we have the table of data and now we need to find the correlation of the data.

As per the given data we have calculated the value of r as,

X Values

∑ = 132.38

Mean = 5.295

∑(X - Mx)² = SSₓ = 9.005

And the Y Values

∑ = 170.76

Mean = 6.83

∑(Y - My)² = SSₙ = 26.357

When the X and Y Combined

N = 25

∑(X - Mx)(Y - My) = 10.065

So, the R Calculation

r = ∑((X - My)(Y - Mx)) / √((SSₓ)(SSₙ))

r = 10.065 / √((9.005)(26.357)) = 0.6533

Then the Meta Numeric (cross-check)

r = 0.6533

When we round of these value then we get the value of the correlation as 0.7.
