6. The following table shows the Mean and Standard Deviation of the prices of two shares
on a stock exchange.
Shares Mean (Rs) Standard Deviation (Rs)
X Ltd. 35.5 8.7
Y Ltd. 45.5 10.2
If the coefficient of correlation between the prices of two shares is 0.55, find the most
likely price of share X corresponding to a price of Rs. 62 observed in the case of
share Y.
