QUESTION 3 [17]
The lecturers of IOP2601 realized that students who participate in student support programs perform better
in the examinations. A researcher in your university wanted to test the validity of this study by firstly
assessing the relationship between student support programs (X) and examination performance (Y), and
she found the following information:
STUDENTS STUDENT SUPPORT PROGRAMS (X) EXAMINATION PERFORMANCE (Y)
A 15 20
B 12 16
C 08 14
D 10 22
E 10 12
F 12 18
G 15 21
H 09 14
I 20 25
J 17 20

scores (Y). (3)
3.2 Interpret the correlation coefficient. (2)
3.3 What can you deduce about the nature of the relationship between the student support programs
(X) and examination performance scores (Y)? (1)
3.4 Calculate the percentage of common variance between the two sets of scores and illustrate it
