Question:

Mary Sue wants to know if there is a connection between attendance at craft fairs and the number of exhibitors who have booths at the fair. For a random sample of seven local craft fairs, she chose a random day of the fair and recorded the number of exhibitors. In the data below, x represents the number of exhibitors and y represents the attendance in hundreds of people.

x 35 55 75 95 100 135 150
y 1.2 2.1 4.2 5.4 5.8 6.2 9.5
  1. Draw the scatter diagram for the data.
  2. Calculate the sample correlation coefficient, r.
  3. Calculate the coefficient of determination, r 2 .
  4. What does the coefficient of determination tell you about the variation in attendance and the variation in the number of exhibitors?
