Compute the product moment correlation coefficient briefly comment on the value acquired

The produce moment correlation:

1701_Example of Product moment correlation 1.png

Workings:

x¯ = 4020/10 = 402

y¯ = 3550/10 = 355

= 0.89

Comment: The value acquired 0.89 suggests that the correlation between annual expenditure and annual income is high and positive. This shows that the more one earns the more one spends.
