Question

Data was gathered on the amount of rainfall X (in inches) for the last 5 years to analyze if the amount of rainfall X (in inches) could be used to predict the acorn output Y (in tons) for a group of oak trees. Researchers expect the the acorn output to increase linearly with the increase in rainfall amount. That is, they are specifically interested in testing if the correlation between the rainfall and the acorn output is positive (i.e.: ) . When the necessary conditions are satisfied, under the null hypothesis, test statistic for above test Group of answer choices follows a t distribution with degrees of freedom (n-1) follows a chi-square distribution with degrees of freedom (n-1) follows a t distribution with degrees of freedom (n-2) follows a standard normal distribution. follows a chi-square distribution with degrees of freedom (n-2)

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
