a. Find the correlation between these two variables.
b. Write the standardized regression equation for these data.
c. Calculate b and a for the unstandardized regression equation for these data.
d. Write the unstandardized regression equation for these data.
e. Draw the scatterplot and regression line for these data.
f. Do the data violate any assumptions?
g. Using the standardized regression equation, make a prediction for the following zx values
zx ….....……….. ẑy
