A student wants to see if the number of times a book has been checked out of the library in the past year and the number of pages in the book are related. She guesses that the number of times a book has been checked out of the library in the past year will be a predictor of the number of pages it has. She randomly sampled 15 books from the library, test her claim at a 0.05 level of significance. number of times checked out number of pages 13 223 45 350 49 377 30 371 3 343 7 280 17 218 7 265 20 382 23 287 1 313 30 388 20 358 2 311 40 421 The correlation coefficient: r= (round to 3 decimal places) The equation y=a+bx is: (round to 3 decimal places) y=+ x The hypotheses are: H0:ρ=0H0:ρ=0 (no linear relationship) HA:ρ≠0HA:ρ≠0 (linear relationship) (claim) Since αα is 0.05 the critical value is -2.16 and 2.16 The test value is: (round to 3 decimal places) The p-value is: (round to 3 decimal places) The decision is to reject H0H0 do not reject H0H0 Thus the final conclusion sentence is There is enough evidence to reject the claim that there is a linear relationship. There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that there is a linear relationship. There is enough evidence to support the claim that there is a linear relationship. There is not enough evidence to support the claim that there is a linear relationship.

The
r= (round to 3 decimal places)
The equation y=a+bx is: (round to 3 decimal places)
y=+ x
The hypotheses are:
H0:ρ=0H0:ρ=0 (no linear relationship)
HA:ρ≠0HA:ρ≠0 (linear relationship) (claim)
Since αα is 0.05 the critical value is -2.16 and 2.16
The test value is: (round to 3 decimal places)
The p-value is: (round to 3 decimal places)
The decision is to
- reject H0H0
- do not reject H0H0
Thus the final conclusion sentence is
- There is enough evidence to reject the claim that there is a linear relationship.
- There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that there is a linear relationship.
- There is enough evidence to support the claim that there is a linear relationship.
- There is not enough evidence to support the claim that there is a linear relationship.
