I assumed your first column was X information and your second column was Y information. To solve this, we need several pieces of information: n, Xbar, Y bar, SUM(XY), SUM(X^2), SUM(Y^2).
n = 9
= 51
= 136.3333
= 63544
= 24059
= 168843
r^2 = [SUM(XY) - nXbarYbar)^2] / [(SUM(X^2) - nXbar^2)(SUM(Y^2) - nYbar^2)]
If all numbers are put in correctly and then a square root is taken, you should end up with
r ~ .95968627 ~ .96.
