Question

An inquiry of 50 families to study the relationship between expenditure on accommodation (₹ x) and expenditure on food and entertainment (₹ y) gave the following results: 

∑ x = 8500, ∑ y = 9600, σX = 60, σY = 20, r = 0.6

Estimate the expenditure on food and entertainment when expenditure on accommodation is Rs 200.

Sum

Solution

X = Expenditure on accommodation.

Y = Expenditure on food and entertainment

Given, ∑ x = 8500, ∑ y = 9600, σX = 60, σY = 20, r = 0.6, n = 50

∴ `bar x = (sum x)/"n" = 8500/50 = 170`

`bar y = (sum y)/"n" = 9600/50 = 192`

Now, `"b"_"YX" = "r" sigma_"Y"/sigma_"X" = 0.6 xx 20/60 = 0.2`

Also, `"a" = bar y - "b"_"YX"  bar x`

= 192 - 0.2 × 170 = 192 - 34 = 158

The regression equation of Y on X is

Y = a + bYX X

∴ Y = 158 + 0.2 X

For X = 200,

Y = 158 + 0.2 × 200 = 158 + 40 = 198

∴ The expenditure on food and entertainment is
₹ 198 when expenditure on accommodation is ₹ 200.
