A random sample of twelve pairs of values of \(x\) and \(y\) is taken from a bivariate distribution. The equations of the regression lines of \(y\) on \(x\) and of \(x\) on \(y\) are respectively
\[y=0.46 x+1.62 \quad \text { and } \quad x=0.93 y+8.24\]
(i) Find the value of the product moment correlation coefficient for this sample.
(ii) Using a 5\% significance level, test whether there is non-zero correlation between the variables.
