Use this sample data to construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean number of targeted industrial chemicals to be found in an infant's blood.
Correlation
Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.
Linear Correlation
A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.

In Oct. 2008, scientists tested cord blood samples for 20 newborn infants in USA. The scientists were testing for 430 harmful chemicals linked to brain and nervous toxicity.
The numbers below showed many of the targeted chemicals found in each infant's cord blood.
