Stoaches are fictional creatures that nest in truffula forests. A researcher wants to know whether there is a relationship between a stoach’s wingspan (?W, the predictor) and its nest height (?H, the response). A sample of 85 stoaches is observed, and for each, the wing-span (in cm) and the nest height (in m) are recorded. The observed data meet the assumptions for a linear regression, so the researcher fits the regression model and obtains a regression equation ℎ̂=−4.273+0.834?,h^=−4.273+0.834w, with standard error for the coefficient of ?w equal to 0.242. Determine the ?p-value from a test for a statistically significant linear dependence of nest height on wing-span. (Give your answer to 4 decimal places.

Which of the following statements best describes linear regression? A measure of the degree of dependence between two variables. A statistical technique using pairs of data and identifying a line which ‘best fits’ all of the pairs of observations. A measure of the proportion of changes in the dependent variable which can be explained by a change in the independent variable. Shows individual costs against their associated activity levels but makes no attempt to identify a linear relationship between them.
