2. Ten students got the following percentage of marks in Economics and Statistics. Calculate the correlation co-efficient.


3. Find the correlation co-efficient between sales and expenses of the following 10 firms.


4. The following marks have been obtained by a class of students in English. Find the correlation co-efficient.


5. Calculate the Karl Pearson's co-efficient of correlation from the following data.

7. Find the correlation co-efficient between the height of fathers(X) and height of sons (Y) given below :


8. Find the rank correlation co-efficient of ranks of 8 candidates in Maths and English as given below:


9. Let the random variable X have the marginal density function

g(x) = 1,-1/2  < x < 1/2 and let the conditional density of Y be

h (y / x) = 1, x < y < x + 1, -1/ 2 < x < 0

= 1, − x < y < 1 - x, 0 < x < 1/2

S.T the variables X and Y are uncorrelated.

 

10. Let X and Y be random variables having joint density function


11. If ƒ (x,y) = 1/8 (6 − x − y), 0 ≤ x ≤ 2, 2 ≤ y ≤ 4, find rXY.
