  1. Use your sampled data to conduct a hypothesis test at a 5% level of significance to determine whether or not the correlation between the number of COVID-19 cases in a state and the number of COVID-19 deaths in that state is significant. 
    • State your null and alternative hypotheses in mathematical notation.
    • Indicate the features of the distribution of point estimates you will use to conduct the test.
    • Find your point estimate, and find the pp-value of your point estimate.
    • Make a conclusion about the null hypothesis. Interpret your conclusion using words in the context of the problem.
