Question
  1. The following table shows the hour studied per week and the GPA for 19 students. Complete the table and answer the questions
  1. Compute the correlation coefficient between GPA and Study Hours using the Z-score products from the table. Show work.
  2. Find the slope coefficient for the regression line (assume that GPA (y) is a function of HOURS (x)).
  3. Find the intercept for the regression line.
  4. Write the regression model.
  5. Predict the GPA of someone who studies 10 hours per week.

Please someone help with this. I have my own answers but I believe they're wrong.

We\ find\ regression\ model\ using\ following\ R-code : \\ Estimated\ regression\ eqn : \ \ y=0.02397x + 2.51936 \\ So,\ slope\ coeff = 0.02397 \\ Intercept = 2.51936 \\ For\ x=10, \ GPA\ :\ y=0.02397*10 + 2.51936 = 2.75906

> mod<-lm(y~x)
> summary(mod)
