Question
The data below show the consumption of alcohol (X, liters per year per person, 14 years or older)
and the death rate from cirrhosis, a liver disease (Y, death per 100,000 population) in 15 countries
(each country is an observation unit).

Questions:
i.
Draw a Scatter Diagram to show the association, if any, between these two
variables;
ii.
Can you draw any conclusion/observation without doing any calculation?
Calculate Pearson's Coefficient of Correlation then state your interpretation.
iii.
iv.
Determine the simple linear regression line (Line of Best Fit) by calculating the
estimate Intercept and Slope
If the model holds, what would be the death rate from Cirrhosis for a country with
alcohol consumption rate of 11.0 liters per year per person?
V.
