SSX : sum of squared deviates for Xi values
   
   N = 50
   Xi2 = 102,722
   Xi = 1,816
   (Xi)2 = (1,816)2 = 3,297,856
Thus:
   SSX = 102,722(3,297,856/50) = 36,764.88
SSY : sum of squared deviates for Yi values
   
   N = 50
   Yi2 = 45,598,101
   Yi = 47,627
   (Yi)2 = (47,627)2 = 2,268,331,129
Thus:
   SSY = 45,598,101(2,268,331,129/50) = 231,478.42
SCXY : sum of co-deviates for paired values of Xi and Yi

   N = 50
   Xi = 1,816
   Yi = 47,627
   (Xi)(Yi) = 1,816 x 47,627 = 86,490,632
   (XiYi) = 1,650,185
Thus:
   SCXY = 1,650,185(86,490,632/50) = 79,627.64
r = SCXY
sqrt[SSX x SSY]
 
= .79,627.64
sqrt[36,764.88 x 231,478.42]
= 0.86

r2 = (0.86)2 = 0.74
