Test the claim that there is significant correlation at the0.01 significance level. Retain at least 3decimals on all values.

a) Identify the correct alternative hypothesis.

  • H1:ρ=0H1:ρ=0
  • H1:r≠0H1:r≠0
  • H1:μ≠0H1:μ≠0
  • H1:pL≠pHH1:pL≠pH
  • H1:ρ≠0H1:ρ≠0



b) The rr test statistic value is:   

c) The critical value is:

d) Based on this, we

  • Reject H0H0
  • Fail to reject H0H0



e) Which means

  • There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of theclaim
  • There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim
  • The sample data supports the claim
  • There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of theclaim



f) The regression equation (in terms of income xx) is:
ˆy=y^=   

g) To predict what diameter a child would draw a nickel givenfamily income, it would be most appropriate to:

  • Use the regression equation
  • Use the mean coin size
  • Use the P-Value
  • Use the residual
