Construct a​ scatterplot, find the value of the linear correlation coefficient​ r, and find the​ P-value using α=0.05. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between court incomes and justice​ salaries? Based on the​ results, does it appear that justices might profit by levying larger​ fines?
