A biologist looked at the relationship between number of seeds a plant produces and the percent of those seeds that sprout. The results of the survey are shown below.

 

Seeds Produced 65 51 59 66 42 62 61 69 65
Sprout Percent 64.5 65.5 64.5 49 72 61 50.5 54.5

  1. Use a level of significance of α=0.05α=0.05 to state the conclusion of the hypothesis test in the context of the study.
    • There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that a plant that produces more seeds will have seeds with a lower sprout rate than a plant that produces fewer seeds.
    • There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the number of seeds that a plant produces and the percent of the seeds that sprout. Thus, the regression line is useful.
    • There is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the number of seeds that a plant produces and the percent of the seeds that sprout. Thus, the use of the regression line is not appropriate.
    • There is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that a plant that produces more seeds will have seeds with a lower sprout rate than a plant that produces fewer seeds.
