Question

You wish to determine if there is a positive linear correlation between the two variables at a significance level of α=0.01α=0.01. You have the following bivariate data set.

x y
20.6 50.6
29.3 57.4
31.1 58
31.7 57.7
27.2 55.7
20.1 54.4

26.7 50.2
33.1 70
24.5 51.4
24.6 52.4
33.2 49.8
26.8 56.3
18.6 43.9
21.6 55

29.9 58.3
43.3 72.8
21.8 50.5
33.6 52.1
19.7 52.3
21.6 50
30.7 60.9
21.3 43.3
4.7 40.3
22.9 49.9
5 48
11.2 43.4
32.7 63.9
20.7 47.6
23.9 42.3
21.5 46.6
24.2 56.8
23.6 46.7
25.2 59.9


What is the correlation coefficient for this data set?
       r = 
(report answer accurate to at least 3 decimal places)

To find the p-value for a correlation coefficient, you need to convert to a t-score:t=r⋅√n−21−r2t=r⋅n-21-r2This t-score is from a t-distribution with n−2n-2 degrees of freedom.

What is the p-value for this correlation coefficient?
       p-value = 
(report answer accurate to at least 4 decimal places)

Your final conclusion is that...

  • There is insufficient sample evidence to support the claim the there is a positive correlation between the two variables.
  • There is sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that there is a statistically significant positive correlation between the two variables.
