Show your work Is there a correlation between the amount of CO2 emissions in USA and the amount of CO2 emissions in other countries? To investigate that question researchers recorded the average amount of CO2 emissions (in metric tons) in the USA and in other countries over 12 years. 3.3 3.3 3.5 3.7 3.7 3.8 4.5 4.6 4.7 4.7 5 5 20 19.6 19.4 19.6 19.0 19.5 19.2 17.5 18.5 19.2 16.3 16.4 X y CO2 Emissions in Other Countries (metric tons) 25 20 CO2 Emissions Per Person in Other Countries vs USA 1 2 3 4 CO2 Emissions in USA (metric tons) Note: x = 4.15, Sx = 0.66, y=18.68, sy = 1.26 5 6 (a) The sample correlation coefficient r=-0.802. Is there a correlation between the CO2 emissions in USA and the CO2 emissions in other countries? Justify your answers using statistical concepts. If there is a correlation, is it positive or negative? (b) Find the equation of the least squares regression line: y = a + bx. Round a and b to 1 decimal place.
