¾Enter the new y value

¾Touch r x, r

The correlation coefficient, r, can be calculated by touching the x↔y key after calculating the estimate.

Example

Using the children’s height (y) and weight (x) values from above, estimate the height (y) of a child weighing 64 pounds (x) and determine the correlation coefficient. Note: Do not clear the registers after the prior example.

Weighted Mean Values

A set of numbers and their weighted mean may be determined if you know the weights of the items to be calculated. To do this:

¾Touch b clear ∑ ￿

¾Enter value of item and touch ENTER

¾Enter items’ weight and touch ∑+

¾Repeat until all values are entered, following the item ENTER weight

∑+ formula

¾ Touch r x w to calculate weighted mean of all values

Example

Over a 6-month period, you buy bricks on many occasions to lay a path through your garden.

•First month: 150 bricks at $0.68 a brick

•Second month: 200 bricks at $0.43 a brick
