Let x be the age in years of a licensed automobile driver. Let y be the percentage of all fatal accidents (for a given age) due to speeding. For example, the first data pair indicates that 35% of all fatal accidents of 17-year-olds are due to speeding.
x 17 27 37 47 57 67 77
y 35 24 19 12 10 7 5
given:
Σx = 329, Σy = 112, Σx2 = 18,263, Σy2 = 2480, Σxy = 3934, and r ≈ -0.958.
(a) Verify the given sums Σx, Σy, Σx2, Σy2, Σxy and the value of the sample correlation coefficient r. (Round your value for r to three decimal places.)

(c) Find the value of the coefficient of determination r2. What percentage of the variation in y can be explained by the corresponding variation in x and the least-squares line? What percentage is unexplained? (Round your answer for r2 to three decimal places. Round your answers for the percentages to one decimal place.)
