If we subtract 5 from all of the x measurements, what happens to the sample correlation r? What happens to the fitted regression slope βˆ 1? What about the intercept βˆ 0?
If we subtract 5 from all of the x measurements, sample correlation will remain the same.
The fitted regression slope and since in the new set up both r, sx will remain same and sy is definitely unaffected, so fitted regression slope will also remain the same
Since in the new set up, will decrease by 5 units, so will increase by unit.
