Further Mathematics
WAEC 2009

The table below shows the corresponding values of two variables X and Y.

X 33 31 28 25 23 22 19 17 16 14
Y 4 6 4 10 12 10 14 15 18 22

(a) Plot a scatter diagram to represent the data.

(b) Calculate \(\bar{x}\), the mean of X and \(\bar{y}\), the mean of Y.

(c) Draw the line of best fit to pass through \((\bar{x}, \bar{y})\).

(d) From your graph in (c), determine the (i) relationship between X and Y ; (ii) value of Y when X is 24.

Explanation
X 33 31 28 25 23 22 19 17 16 14 228
Y 4 6 4 10 12 10 14 15 18 22 115

(b) \(\bar{x} = \frac{\sum X}{N} = \frac{228}{10} = 22.8\)

\(\bar{y} = \frac{\sum Y}{N} = \frac{115}{10} = 11.5\)

(c) See graph above.
