Follow-up Question
​(d) Does a linear relation exist between the speed at which a ball is hit and the distance the ball​ travels?
 
The variables speed at which the ball is hit and the distance the ball travels are
positively associated because r is positive and the absolute value of the correlation coefficient is
greater than the critical value (            ) 
 
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
