Find the Linear
r =
Find the p-value
p-value =
The p-value is
- Greater than αα
- Less than (or equal to) αα
The p-value leads to a decision to
- Do Not Reject Ho
- Accept Ho
- Reject Ho
The conclusion is
- There is insufficient evidence to make a conclusion about the linear correlation between advertising expense and profit.
- There is a significant linear correlation between advertising expense and profit.
- There is a significant
positive linear correlation between advertising expense and profit. - There is a significant negative linear correlation between advertising expense and profit.

The scatterplot below displays the relationship between the number of hours each student typically works per week at a part- or full-time job and the number of hours of television each student typically watches per week. The correlation between these variables is r = –0.63, and the equation we would use to predict hours spent watching TV based on hours spent working is as follows: Predicted hours spent watching TV = 17.21 – 0.23(hours spent working) Since we are using hours spent working to help us predict hours spent watching TV, we’d call hours spent working a(n) __________________ variable and hours spent watching TV a(n) __________________ variable. The correlation coefficient, along with what we see in the scatterplot, tells us that the relationship between the variables has a direction that is _________________ and a strength that is ______________________.
