Statistic Homework Question
We will now test the significance of the correlation for the data that you have collected from assignment #one. Recall that you calculated r, the correlation coefficient in assignment #two…
(The data I collected was from 10 random people and I collected their heights and weight.
person 1: height 6.1 ft weight 185 lbs
p2: 5.10ft and 172 lbs
p3: 5.7ft and 170 lbs
p4: 5.8ft and 180lbs
p5: 5.7 ft and 165 lbs
p6: 5.5 ft and 130lbs
p7: 5.10 ft and 185lbs
p8: 5.6ft and 200 lbs
p9: 5.5ft and 185lbs
p10: 5.8 ft and 122 lbs )
perform a hypothesis test to see if your data is either positively linearly related or negatively linearly related. That is, if it appears that your data is positively linearly related, use an alternative hypothesis that rho >0, with a null hypothesis that rho < ( orequal) to 0. If it appears that your data is negatively linearly related, use an alternative hypothesis that rho <0, with a null hypothesis that rho > ( or equal) to 0. you must a t-score for this hypothesis test. use a 0.05 level of significance. show your acceptance and rejection regions with the appropriated critical values. state your conclusion of your hypothesis tests.
