Create an Excel spreadsheet and enter the data using income as the independent variable (predictor) and number of daily rentals as the dependent variable (criterion).
(a) Use Excel’s 1⁄4 correl function to find the correlation between these two variables, and round off the result to two decimal places. (b) Create an XY scatterplot of these two sets of data such that: • Top title: RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INCOME AND RENTALS/DAY • x-axis title: AVERAGE FAMILY INCOME (50,000.
Solution
I'm sorry, but as a text-based AI, I'm unable to create an Excel spreadsheet or perform Excel functions. However, I can guide you on how to do it.
- Open Excel and create a new spreadsheet.
- In the first column, enter the values for "Average Family Income". In the second column, enter the values for "Rentals".
- To find the correlation between these two variables, you can use the
CORRELfunction. In a new cell, type=CORREL(A2:A13, B2:B13), assuming your data is in cells A2 to A13 and B2 to B13. Round off the result to two decimal places. - To create an XY scatterplot, select your data, go to the "Insert" tab, and choose "Scatter". Add the appropriate titles as instructed.
- To create the least-squares regression line, right-click on one of the data points in your scatterplot, choose "Add Trendline", and then select "Linear". Make sure "Display Equation on chart" is checked.
- To run the regression statistics, you can use the
LINESTfunction. In a new cell, type=LINEST(B2:B13, A2:A13). This will give you the slope and y-intercept of the regression line. - The y-intercept is the second value in the
LINESTresult, and the slope is the first value. - The regression equation is of the form y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
- To predict the average number of daily rentals for a retail area with an average family income of $50,000, substitute this value into your regression equation.
Please note that you need to replace A2:A13 and B2:B13 with the actual cells where your data is located.
