The production department of Celltronics International wants to explore the relationship between the number of employees who assemble a subassembly and the number produced. As an experiment, 2 employees were assigned to assemble the subassemblies. They produced 6 during a one-hour period. Then 4 employees assembled them. They produced 10 during a one-hour period. The complete set of paired observations follows.

 

Number of
Assemblers
One-Hour
Production (units)
26
410
14
518
312

 

The dependent variable is production; that is, it is assumed that different levels of production result from a different number of employees.

b.

A scatter diagram is provided below. Based on it, does there appear to be any relationship between the number of assemblers and production?

 

  
    , as the number of assemblers , so does the production.

 

c.

Compute the correlation coefficient. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round sxsy and r to 3 decimal places.)
