- You wish to determine if there is a linear correlation between the two variables at a significance level of a = 0.01. You have the following bivariate data set.

O There is insufficient sample evidence to support the claim the there is a correlation between the two variables. There is sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that there is a statistically significant correlation between the two variables.arrow_forwardThe correlation coefficient r is a sample statistic. What does it tell us about the value of the population correlation coefficient ?(Greek letter rho)? You do not know how to build the formal structure of hypothesis tests of ? yet. However, there is a quick way to determine if the sample evidence based on ? is strong enough to conclude that there is some population correlation between the variables. In other words, we can use the value of r to determine if ? ≠ 0. We do this by comparing the value |r| to an entry in the correlation table. The value of ? in the table gives us the probability of concluding that ? ≠ 0 when, in fact, ? = 0 and there is no population correlation. We have two choices for ?: ? = 0.05 or ? = 0.01. (a) Look at the data below regarding the variables x = age of a Shetland pony and y = weight of that pony.

Colby was in his most recent class, and his class’s mean score on the final exam was 82%. Colby decided to run a hypothesis test to determine if the mean score of his class was significantly greater than the mean score of the population. α = .01. What is the mean score of the population? What is the mean score of the sample? Is this test one-tailed or two-tailed? Why?arrow_forward(i) State the hyptheses. (ii) Sketch a scatter plot tat best represents the data.

(a) Is the correlation a good metric for describing the relationship between X and Y for these data? Why or why not? Regardless of your answer suppose you calculated the sample correlation between X and Y and found that r = -0.15. Explain in one sentence what this means. (b) If, as noted in (a), r = -0.15 then what is the value of the correlation between 2X and 5Y? (c) Based on (b) draw your best approximation to the least squares regression line that fits the data above. Also, make a rough sketch of the corresponding residual plot.arrow_forwardUsing an a = 0.05 significance level, what was the evidence for your answer to the previous question? O Because the p-value of the t-test for Experience is greater than 0.05, the analyst should not reject Ho: B₁ 0 so HA B10 is unsupported. This means that there is NO statistically significant relationship between Sales and Experience. = Because the p-value of the t-test for the Intercept is less than or equal to 0.05, the analyst should reject Ho: Bo 0 and accept HA Bo 0. This means that there is a statistically significant relationship between Sales and Experience. - O Because the p-value of the t-test for Experience is less than or equal to 0.05, the analyst should reject Ho: B1 = 0 and accept HA B1 0. This means that there is a statistically significant relationship between Sales and Experience. : O Because the p-value of the t-test for Experience is less than or equal to 0.05, the analyst should reject Ho: B1 = 0 and accept HA B1 0.
