Correlation
Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.
Linear Correlation
A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.
Regression Analysis
Regression analysis is a statistical method in which it estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variable. In simple terms dependent variable is called as outcome variable and independent variable is called as predictors. Regression analysis is one of the methods to find the trends in data. The independent variable used in Regression analysis is named Predictor variable. It offers data of an associated dependent variable regarding a particular outcome.
Consider the following set of dependent and independent variables. Use these data to answer questions a and b in the photos below.
y | 47 | 44 | 40 | 40 | 27 | 21 | 19 | 15 | 9 |
x1 | 22 | 32 | 18 | 19 | 10 | 18 | 8 | 15 | 9 |
x2 | 71 | 60 | 81 | 55 | 42 | 46 | 32 | 17 | 16 |

![## Constructing a 95% Confidence Interval for the Regression Coefficient
### Task:
b. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the regression coefficient for \( x_2 \) and interpret its meaning.
### Information Provided:
The 95% confidence interval for the true population coefficient \( \beta_2 \) is \[ \_\_\_ \] to \[ \_\_\_ \].
*Note:* Round to three decimal places as needed.
### Interpretation:
Interpret the meaning of this confidence interval. Choose the correct answer below:
- **A.** Since the confidence interval includes zero, there is sufficient evidence that \( \beta_2 \) is not zero, which indicates that there is a relationship between \( x_2 \) and \( y \).
- **B.** Since the confidence interval does not include zero, there is insufficient evidence that \( \beta_2 \) is not zero, which indicates that there is not a relationship between \( x_2 \) and \( y \).
- **C.** Since the confidence interval includes zero, there is insufficient evidence that \( \beta_2 \) is not zero, which indicates that there may not be a relationship between \( x_2 \) and \( y \).
- **D.** Since the confidence interval does not include zero, there is sufficient evidence that \( \beta_2 \) is not zero, which indicates that there may be a relationship between \( x_2 \) and \( y \).

![### Understanding Confidence Intervals for Regression Coefficients
#### Task:
Construct a 95% confidence interval for the regression coefficient for \( x_1 \) and interpret its meaning.
#### Solution:
1. **Calculate the Confidence Interval**:
The 95% confidence interval for the true population coefficient \( \beta_1 \) is from \([ \, \_\_ \, \text{ to } \, \_\_ \, ]\). (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
2. **Interpret the Confidence Interval**:
Choose the correct interpretation from the options below:
- **A**: Since the confidence interval includes zero, there is insufficient evidence that \( \beta_1 \) is not zero, which indicates that there may not be a relationship between \( x_1 \) and \( y \).
- **B**: Since the confidence interval does not include zero, there is sufficient evidence that \( \beta_1 \) is not zero, which indicates that there may be a relationship between \( x_1 \) and \( y \).
- **C**: Since the confidence interval includes zero, there is sufficient evidence that \( \beta_1 \) is not zero, which indicates that there may not be a relationship between \( x_1 \) and \( y \).
- **D**: Since the confidence interval does not include zero, there is insufficient evidence that \( \beta_1 \) is not zero, which indicates that there may not be a relationship between \( x_1 \) and \( y \).
#### Explanation:
A confidence interval for a regression coefficient gives a range of values within which we can say with a certain level of confidence (95% in this case) that the true coefficient lies. If the interval does not include zero, it suggests a statistically significant relationship. Conversely, if zero is included, the evidence for a relationship may be insufficient.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F941f06a6-e646-4f8e-85a5-31bbef4ef150%2Fe9ea045f-2f4a-4cf1-a1f0-bfd7fadf7f55%2Fguhyyr_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
