Find least square regression line correlation coefficient


The following data represent the heights and weights of various baseball players. (in inches/ pounds)

Player     Height, x     Weight, y            Player         Height, x       Weight, y

Nate        72               197                   Greg           70                 195

Derek      71               201                  Randy          77                  240

Mark        73              192                   Josh             71                 193

Jon          74             209                    Pat               74                 203

(a) Compute the least-square regression line. Y=(.....)x- (......)(Do not round until the final answer, then round to three decimal places as needed)

(b) Remove the value corresponding to Randy and compute the least square regression line the correlation coefficient.

(c) Do you thing that Randy is an influential observation.
