For each exercise, decide at 10% significance level, whether the data provide sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis in favour of alternate hypothesis.

Ha: p≠0

Short Answer

Expert verified

We reject the null hypothesis Ha: p≠0, the variables are not linearly correlated.

Step by step solution

01

Correlation Coefficient 

Sample correlation coefficient is calculated by

r=∑zxzy/( n-1) 

where zxn=(xn-xmean)/standarddeviation, and same for zyn

Using excel and above, r=-0.6325

02

Hypothesis Testing 

r≠0for sample needs to be tested using hypothesis testing, to ensure that the population correlation parameterp (rho) ≠0

t=r/(1-r2) /(n-2)=-0.6325/0.599/3=-0.6325/0.4468t=-1.415

As t value is smaller and p value is greater at two sided 0.10 significance level, so we accept the null hypothesis [H0: p=0]
