A previous student of this class was curious about the relationship between number of hours a person slept before an exam and the number of correct answers on the exam. She asked a sample of 5 people from her residence hall the number of hours they slept before their first exam and the number of correct answers they got on their first exam. The data are:   Number of hours slept before exam: X Number of correct answers on exam: Y   XY   X2   Y2 8 7 3 6 3 7 10 0 9 5                   13a. State your hypotheses (include both H0 and H1) using statistical notation.     13b. State your hypotheses (include both null and alternative) using words.     Compute the Pearson’s r correlation.                                                 Evaluate the Null Hypothesis (Reject or Fail to reject?). Use alpha = .05 and two tails. Use the attached table. What is your conclusion about the two variables? How did you make your decision?
