Noise and Intelligibility Audiologists study the intelligibility of spoken sentences under different noise levels. Intelligibility, the MRT score, is measured as the percent of a spoken sentence that the listener can decipher at a cesl4ain noise level in decibels (dB). The table shows the results of one such test. (a) Make a scatter plot of the data. (b) Find and graph the regression line. (c) Find the correlation coefficient. Is a linear model appropriate? (d) Use the linear model in put (b) to estimate the intelligibility of a sentence at a 94-dB noise level.
