Question: Basketball: Fouls Data for this problem are based on information from STATS Basketball Scoreboard. It is thought that basketball teams that make too many fouls in a game tend to lose the game even if they otherwise play well. Let x be the number of fouls more than (i.e., over and above) the opposing team. Let y be the percentage of times the team with the larger number of fouls wins the game.
Draw a scatter diagram displaying the data. Find the value of the sample correlation
coefficient r. Find a, and b. Then find the equation of the least squares line. Graph the least-squares line on your scatter diagram.
| x | y |
| 0 | 50 |
| 2 | 45 |
| 5 | 33 |
| 6 | 26 |
