    These last 4 exercises from Section 2 are review questions that should be part of your preparation for Quiz 2. When you work on these questions, be as efficient as possible. When you have to calculate the correlation or the least squares regression line, first calculate the sums of the x's, x^2's, y's, y^2's, and xy's, then determine SS(x), SS(y), and SS(xy), and finally determine the regression coefficients and the correlation coefficient r. If you cannot recall this fast solution, check the lecture notes. Also, look at the solutions for Homework Assignment 5. Alternatively, learn how to use your calculator efficiently.
