### Educational Content for Correlation Coefficient Analysis

#### Problem Description
Using the given data set, complete parts (a) through (c) below (α = 0.05).

#### Data Set:
| \(x\) |10| 8 | 13 | 9 | 11 | 14 | 6 | 4 | 12 | 7 | 5 |
|-----|---|---|----|---|----|----|---|---|----|---|---|
| \(y\) |7.46| 6.77 | 7.74 | 7.11 | 7.81 | 8.84 | 6.09 | 5.39 | 8.14 | 6.43 | 5.72 |

### Step b: Find the Linear Correlation Coefficient

#### Linear Correlation Coefficient Calculation:
The linear correlation coefficient \( r \) is computed and found to be: 
\[ r = 0.816 \]
*The result is rounded to three decimal places.*

### Interpretation:
Based on the linear correlation coefficient \( r \) obtained, we analyze whether there is sufficient evidence to support the claim of a linear correlation between the two variables.

### Graphical Representations:
- **Graph A**: Plots \( x \) against \( y \) (appears nonlinear).
- **Graph B**: Plots \( x \) against \( y \) (appears linear). \\ **This graph is marked as the correct one based on the analysis.**
- **Graph C**: Plots \( x \) against \( y \) (appears negatively correlated and nonlinear).
- **Graph D**: Plots \( x \) against \( y \) (appears parabolic).

### Conclusion Based on Linear Correlation Coefficient:
Using the linear correlation coefficient found in the previous step, determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support the claim of a linear correlation between the two variables.

#### Options for Conclusion:
A. There is insufficient evidence to support the claim of a nonlinear correlation between the two variables.
B. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim of a nonlinear correlation between the two variables.
C. There is insufficient evidence to support the claim of a linear correlation between the two variables.
D. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim of a linear correlation between the two variables.

#### Correct Answer:
D. There is sufficient evidence
