Question

You wish to determine if there is a positive linear correlation between the two variables at a significance level of α=0.005α=0.005. You have the following bivariate data set.

x y
38.4 32.8
51.2 54.7
48.1 54.6
35.7 11.7
64 103.3
56.5 88
68.6 113.9
10.9 -74.1
53.7 26
51.8 52.1
47.2 57.3
57.6 72.2
60.8 88.4


What is the correlation coefficient for this data set?
       r = 
(report answer accurate to at least 3 decimal places)

To find the p-value for a correlation coefficient, you need to convert to a t-score:t=r⋅√n−21−r2t=r⋅n-21-r2This t-score is from a t-distribution with n−2n-2 degrees of freedom.

What is the p-value for this correlation coefficient?
       p-value = 
(report answer accurate to at least 4 decimal places)

Your final conclusion is that...

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