Question: The production department of NDB Electronics wants to explore the relationship between the number of employees who assemble a subassembly and the number of products produced. As an experiment, two employees were assigned to assemble the subassemblies. They produced 15 during a one-hour period. Then four employees assembled them. They produced 25 during a one-hour period. The complete set of paired observations follows:

Number of Assemblers One-Hour
Production (units)
2 15
4 25
1 10
5 40
3 30

Worksheet for Formula 13-1, Correlation Coefficient

r = \[\sum{{}}\] (X – Xbar) (Y – Ybar)

____________________

(n - 1) s x s y

Xbar = \[\sum{{}}\] X / n

Ybar = \[\sum{{}}\] Y / n

S x = \[\sqrt{{}}\] (X – Xbar) 2 /(n-1)

S y = \[\sqrt{{}}\] (Y – Ybar) 2 /(n-1)

X Y (X – Xbar) (Y – Ybar) (X – Xbar) 2 (Y – Ybar) 2 (X – Xbar)(Y – Ybar)
