Part 3 

Let x be a random variable that represents the percentage of successful free throws a professional basketball player makes in a season. Let y be a random variable that represents the percentage of successful field goals a professional basketball player makes in a season. A random sample of n = 6 professional basketball players gave the following information.

x 67 64 75 86 73 73
y 42 39 48 51 44 51
 Σx = 438, Σy = 275, Σx2 = 32264, Σy2 = 12727, Σxy = 20231, and r ≈ 0.827.

Se ≈ 3.1191, a ≈ 6.564, b ≈ 0.5379, and x ≈ 73.000.

(f) Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that β > 0. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
