Question

A doctor wanted to determine whether there is a relation between a male's age and his HDL (so-called good) cholesterol. The doctor randomly selected 17 of his patients and determined their HDL cholesterol. The data obtained by the doctor is the in the data table below. Complete questions below.

(a) Determine the least-squares regression equation from the sample data.

y=nothingx+nothing

(Round to three decimal places as needed.)

(b)

Assuming the residuals are normally distributed, test whether a linear relation exists between age and HDL cholesterol levels at the

α=0.01

level of significance.

What are the null and alternative hypotheses?

H0:

β1=0;

H1:

β1≠0

H0:

β1=0;

H1:

β1>0

H0:

β1=0;

H1:

β1<0

Use technology to compute the P-value. Use the Tech Help button for further assistance.

The P-value is

nothing.

(Round to three decimal places as needed.)

What conclusion can be drawn at

α=0.01

level of significance?

Do not reject

the null hypothesis because the P-value is

less

than

α=0.01.

Reject

the null hypothesis because the P-value is

greater

than

α=0.01.

Reject

the null hypothesis because the P-value is

less

than

α=0.01.

Do not reject

the null hypothesis because the P-value is

greater

than

α=0.01.
