Question
The weights​ (in pounds) of
6
vehicles and the variability of their braking distances​ (in feet) when stopping on a dry surface are shown in the table. Can you conclude that there is a significant linear correlation between vehicle weight and variability in braking distance on a dry​ surface? Use
α=0.05.
​Weight, x
5930
5330
6500
5100
5810
4800
 
Variability in braking​ distance, y
1.77
1.95
1.86

Setup the hypothesis for the test.
choose
H0​:
ρ
 less than or equals≤
less than<

0
Identify the critical​ value(s). Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer boxes within your choice.
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
 
A.
The critical value is
nothing.
 
B.
The critical values are
−t0=
and
t0=.
 
Calculate the test statistic.
 
t=
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
 
 
What is your​ conclusion?
choose a or b
There
 A.is
b.is not
enough evidence at the
5​%
level of significance to conclude that there
 A.is not
B.is
a significant linear correlation between vehicle weight and variability in braking distance on a dry surface.
