level, y
This data is also on Statcrunch under the group data as, Fat and Cholesterol.
Questions:
a) Compute the correlation coefficient r, using the calculator. Round to 3 decimal
places.
283 222 250 190

b) Draw a scatter plot of the data using your calculator. Based on the scatterplot
and r, describe the relationship between the two variables in the context of the
problem (explain what tends to happen). Use a complete sentence.
d) Interpret the slope of the regression line in the context of the problem.
e) Estimate the cholesterol level of a dieter who consumes 9 grams of fat per day.
