two series X and Y , 50 items each, have standard deviation 4.5 and 3.5 respectively.if the sumission of the product of deviations of X and Y series from their respective arithmetic mean is 420 , find the coefficient of corelation between X and Y.

Dear student,

Given, N= 50
σx = 4.5σy = 3.5
∑xy = 420

r =  xyNσxσyr = 42050×4.5×3.5r = 420787.5r= 0.533

Coefficient of correlation = 0.533

Regards
