You wish to determine if there is a positive linear correlation between the age of a driver and the number of driver deaths. The following table represents the age of a driver and the number of driver deaths per 100,000. Use a significance level of 0.05 and round all values to 4 decimal places. Driver Age Number of Driver Deaths per 100,000 21 19 27 20 58 31 77 31 47 24 50 26 Ho: ρ = 0Ha: ρ > 0 Find the Linear Correlation Coefficient r = Find the p-value p-value = The p-value is Greater than αα Less than (or equal to) αα The p-value leads to a decision to Reject Ho Accept Ho Do Not Reject Ho
Suppose data are collected concerning the weight of a person in pounds and the number of calories burned in 30 minutes of walking on a treadmill at 3.5 miles per hour. How would the value of the correlation coefficient, r, change if all of the weights were converted to kilograms?
After gathering data about the number of starfish and measuring the pollution in areas of the ocean you find a negative linear correlation between pollution levels and number of starfish. What can you conclude based on this information? a. There is a confounding variable that is affecting both pollution and starfish. b. As pollution rises the number of starfish falls c. That pollution is causing starfish to die, leading to the negative correlation d. That pollution is supporting starfish, leading to the negative correlation
There appears to be a problem with one of your contact methods. Please check your SettingS Enter the following table into your calculator or the Desmos Grapher and create the scatterplot.

What shape of function does the scatterplot show? 3. Use your calculator or the Desmos Grapher to find the equation for the line/curve of best fit. Now, use the equation editor to give the equation for the line/curve of best fit. 4. Determine if this equation is a good predictor of the data, using the appropriate number as proof/reasoning.
A graduate teaching assistant for an Introduction to Statistics course collected data from one of her classes to investigate the relationship between using the explanatory variable x=study time per week (average number of hours) to predict the response variable y=college GPA. For the 21 females in her class, the correlation was 0.42. For the eight males in her class, the data were as shown in the following table. Complete parts a through c below.

Stan measured the circumference of his classmates' heads and compared it with their current grade in Math. The results are in the given table. Head (cm) Grade 55 23 53 92 57 84 56 88 55 97 53 87 54 72 57 64 57 91 Is there a strong correlation in this data set? How do you know? Yes, there is a strong correlation because the slope is 126.5. No, there is NOT a strong correlation because the correlation coefficient is -0.89, which is close to -1.
Below shows the linear relationship between first year college GPA and high school GPA For both variables the GPA ranges from 0 to 4 in this sample. However, for the high schools sampled in this region, the true range of GPA is 0 to 5, how might this affect the correlation between these two variables?
