Question

You wish to determine if there is a linear correlation between the two variables at a significance level of α=0.02. You have the following bivariate data set.

x y
40.7 -525.6
62.4 76
66.1 455.5
77 134.4
88.5 -379.7
81.7 43.3
93.3 88
58.4 254.7
55.8 262.9
55.9 -99.4
66.6 -215.9
85.7 409.7
72.8 -153.1
55.6 207.5



What is the correlation coefficient for this data set?
r = 

To find the p-value for a correlation coefficient, you need to convert to a t-score: t=√r2(n−2)1−r2 This t-score is from a t-distribution with n–2 degrees of freedom.

What is the p-value for this correlation coefficient?
p-value = 

Your final conclusion is that...

  • There is sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that there is a statistically significant correlation between the two variables.
  • There is insufficient sample evidence to support the claim the there is a correlation between the two variables.



Note: In your calculations, round both r and t to 3 decimal places in ALL calculations.
