Question
data set includes weights of garbage discarded in one week from
62
different households. The paired weights of paper and glass were used to obtain the results shown to the right. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between weights of discarded paper and​ glass? Use a significance level of
α=0.05.

Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
 
 
 
Identify the test​ statistic, r.
 
r=
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
 
Identify the critical​ value(s).
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
 
A.There are two critical values at
r=± ______
 
B.There is one critical value at r= _____
 
State the conclusion.
 
Because the absolute value of the test statistic is
greater than or less than or equal to
the positive critical​ value, there
is not or is
sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the weights of discarded paper and glass for a significant level of
α=0.05.
