Question
Listed below are annual data for various years. The data are weights​ (metric tons) of imported lemons and car crash fatality rates per​ 100,000 population. Construct a​ scatterplot, find the value of the linear correlation coefficient​ r, and find the​ P-value using
α=0.05.
Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between lemon imports and crash fatality​ rates? Do the results suggest that imported lemons cause car​ fatalities?
 
Lemon Imports
231
264
358
483
530
 
 
Crash Fatality Rate
15.9
15.7
15.4
15.2
14.8
 
 
 
 
The linear correlation coefficient is
r=
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
 
The test statistic is
t=
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
The​ P-value is
 
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
 
 
Because the​ P-value is
greater or less
than the significance level 0.05​, there
is or is not
sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between lemon imports and crash fatality rates for a significant level of
α=0.05.
