An economist is studying the job market in Denver area neighborhoods. Let x represent the total number of jobs in a given neighborhood, and let y represent the number of entry-level jobs in the same neighborhood. A sample of six Denver neighborhoods gave the following information (units in hundreds of jobs). x 17 32 50 28 50 25 y237593 IA use SALT Complete parts (a) through (e), given 2x = 202, By = 29, 2x2 = 7722, 2y2 = 177, ny = 1145, and r a: 0.9156.
