68.9
variance (σ2):

2. Calculate correlation coefficients

Find the correlation coefficient, r, of the data described below.

On most days Mitchell takes his lunch break in the park near his office. While sitting on the park bench, he sc
atters seeds  for the pigeons and wonders how many pigeons will come.

He decided to keep track of both the number of seed packages he scatters for the pigeons, x, and the numbe
r of pigeons that come, y.

3. Find the equation of a regression line

Find the equation for the least squares regression line of the data described below.
A soccer coach is considering a strategy of having defensive players take more shots on goal. She evaluated a 
sample of her team's recent matches to see how players in defensive roles could contribute offensively.

In each match the coach tracked the number of shots on goal by her defenders, x. She also noted the differe
nce between the number of goals that had been scored by her team and the opposing team, y.
