(a) Draw a scatter plot.
(b) Based on the scatter plot, explain whether the mumber of years and the percentage
of lung damage are correlated. If they are correlated, discuss the strength of
correlation, and the direction (positive or negative).
(c) Find the correlation coefficient r. Explain what r implies.
(d) Choose your own significance level a (I suggest 0.1, 0.05 or 0.01). State and test
the hypotheses. Explain what your findings mean.
