A major credit card company is interested in whether there is a linear relationship between its internal rating of a customer’s credit risk and that of an independent rating agency. The company collected a random sample of 200 customers and used the data to test the claim that there is a linear relationship. The following hypotheses were used to test the claim.

A scientist claims that there is a linear relationship between a lake’s flow rate and its runoff factor. The scientist collected data and used the data to test the claim that there is a linear relationship at a significance level of α=0.05α=0.05. The scientist tested the following hypotheses.

A scientist is interested in whether there is a linear relationship between the amount of mercury in a lake and the surface area of the lake. The scientist collected data on 22 lakes of a similar type selected at random and used the data to test the claim that there is a linear relationship.

A seafood-sales manager collected data on the maximum daily temperature, T, and the daily revenue from salmon sales, R, using sales receipts for 30 days selected at random. Using the data, the manager conducted a regression analysis and found the least-squares regression line to be Rˆ=126+2.37T. A hypothesis test was conducted to investigate whether there is a linear relationship between maximum daily temperature and the daily revenue from salmon sales. The standard error for the slope of the regression line is SEb1=0.65. Assuming the conditions for inference have been met, which of the following is closest to the value of the test statistic for the hypothesis test? t=0.274 A t=0.65 B t=1.54 C t=3.65 D t=193.85 E
In forestry, the diameter of a tree at breast height is used to model the height of the tree. Silviculturists working in British Columbia’s boreal forest conducted a series of spacing trials to predict the heights of several species of trees. The data are the breast height diameters (in centimeters) and heights (in meters) for a sample of 18 white spruce trees.

If a sample of 25 pairs of data yields a correlation coefficient, r, of 0.390 and the scatterplot displays a linear trend, can you use the regression equation to make predictions, assuming your x-values are within the domain of the data set? Choose your answer from the multiple choice answers below A.) Yes, because rcrit = 0.396 and the regression coefficient, r, is less than this value. B.) Yes, because rcrit = 0.381 and the regression coefficient, r, is greater than this value. C.) No, because rcrit = 0.381 and the regression coefficient, r, is greater than this value. D.) No, because rcrit = 0.396 and the regression coefficient, r, is less than this value.
