2. Suppose we are interested in the relationship between number of hours of exercise per week and systolic blood pressure in males 50 years of age. A random sample of 10 males 50 years of age is selected. In this analysis, the IV is number of hours of exercise per week and the DV is systolic blood pressure. The data are as follows: X = #hrs of exercise WkY=systolic BPXY 120 4 10 3 3 1 2 2 110 120...
