The correct Answer is:
To find the regression coefficient of \( x \) on \( y \) given the regression coefficient of \( y \) on \( x \) and the correlation coefficient, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given values We are given: - The regression coefficient of \( y \) on \( x \) (denoted as \( b_{y,x} \)) is \( 0.4 \). - The correlation coefficient \( r(x,y) \) is \( \frac{2}{\sqrt{10}} \). ### Step 2: Use the relationship between regression coefficients and correlation coefficient The relationship between the regression coefficients and the correlation coefficient is given by the formula: \[ b_{y,x} \cdot b_{x,y} = r^2 \] Where: - \( b_{y,x} \) is the regression coefficient of \( y \) on \( x \). - \( b_{x,y} \) is the regression coefficient of \( x \) on \( y \). - \( r \) is the correlation coefficient. ### Step 3: Calculate \( r^2 \) First, we need to find \( r^2 \): \[ r = \frac{2}{\sqrt{10}} \implies r^2 = \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{10}}\right)^2 = \frac{4}{10} = 0.4 \] ### Step 4: Substitute the known values into the equation Now, we can substitute \( b_{y,x} \) and \( r^2 \) into the equation: \[ 0.4 \cdot b_{x,y} = 0.4 \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( b_{x,y} \) To find \( b_{x,y} \), we can rearrange the equation: \[ b_{x,y} = \frac{0.4}{0.4} = 1 \] ### Conclusion The regression coefficient of \( x \) on \( y \) is \( 1 \).
