27. Sports Diameters (cm), circumferences (cm), and volumes (cm3) from bolls used in different sports are listed in the table below. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that then: is a linear correlation between diameters and circumferences? Does the scatterplot confirm a linear association?
28. Sports Repeat the preceding exercise using diameters and volumes.

- Testing for a Linear Correlation. In Exercises 13–28, construct a scatterplot, and find the value of the linear correlation coefficient r. Also find the P-value or the critical values of r from Table A-6. Use a significance level of α = 0.05. Determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation between the two variables. (Save your work because the same data sets will be used in Section 10-2 exercises.) Manatees Listed below are numbers of registered pleasure boats in Florida (tens of thousands) and the numbers of manatee fatalities from encounters with boats in Florida for each of several recent years. The values are from Data Set 10 “Manatee Deaths” in Appendix B. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between numbers of registered pleasure boats and numbers of manatee boat fatalities?arrow_forwardTesting for a Linear Correlation.

The data were collected by students of the author. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between the bill amounts and the tip amounts? If everyone were to tip with the same percentage, what should be the value of r?arrow_forward
