3. X~the length of sticks

X~N (550 , 302 )
480−550
(a.) P(X < 480) = P(Z < 30 )
= P(Z <− 2.333)
= 1 − P(Z < 2.333)
= 1 − Q(2.333)
= 1 − 0.9902
= 0.0098
= 0.98%
480−550 520−550
(b.) P(480 < X < 520) = P( 30 < Z < 30 )
= P( − 2.333 < Z <− 1.0)
= Q(2.333) − Q(1.0)
= 0.9902 − 0.8413
= 0.1489
= 14.89%

7 1327 − 47 226
= 7×353 − 47 2 7×8372 − 226 2

= 0.9009

≈ 0.901

Comment : 90.1% of the variation of y is explained for due the variation of x.

100 584100 − 7700 7350

= 100 602800 − 7700 2

= 1.8333

7350 7700
a= 100
− 1.8333 100

=− 67.667

∴ y = －67.7＋1.83x

(b.) When x = 80, y = －67.7＋1.83(80)

= 78.997 kg
≈ 79kg

=
100×602800 − 7700 2 100×608100 − 7350 2

= 0.7002
≈ 0.7
Comment: Strong positive linear correlation. This estimate is reliable.

(d.) Properties: (i.) The values of Pearson Correlation Coefficient is between －1

and 1.
(ii.) If two variables are independent, the correlation coefficient
is 0 and they are uncorrelated.
