Suppose that we have a sample of size n=19n=19 and calculate r=−0.54r=−0.54. You are interested in testing whether or not there is a linear relationship using ρρ, the population coefficient of correlation. At which of the following significance levels would you reject the null hypothesis?
| n= | 19 | |
| r= | -0.54 | |
| test statistic r*(√(n-2)/(1-r2))= | -2.6453 | |
| from excel:p value =tdist(abs(2.6453,19-2,2) = | 0.0170 |
therefore we will reject Ho when alpha is greater than 0.0170
we will reject the null hypothesis at alpha =0.10 and alpha =0.05

A sample of size 36 is taken from a population with unknown mean and standard deviation 4.5. In a test of H0: μ = 5 vs. Ha: μ < 5, if the sample mean was 4, which of the following is true? (i) We would reject the null hypothesis at α = 0.01. (ii) We would reject the null hypothesis at α = 0.05. (iii) We would reject the null hypothesis at α = 0.10.

Question 22 3 pts Suppose you are interested in testing a null hypothesis and the p-value associated with the test statistic is 0.04. As a result, you should do not reject the null hypothesis at the 5-percent or 1-percent levels of significance. O do not reject the null hypothesis at the 5-percent level of significance, but do reject the null at the 1-percent level of significance. reject the null hypothesis at both the 5-percent and 1-percent levels of significance. reject...
7. You are testing the null hypothesis that there is no linear relationship between two variables, X and Y. From your sample of n=18, you determine that b1=4.4 and Sb1=1.7. a. What is the value of tSTAT? b. At the α=0.05 level of significance, what are the critical values? c. Based on your answers to (a) and (b), what statistical decision should you make? d. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population slope, β1. 8. You are testing...

Given the linear correlation coefficient r and the sample size n, determine the critical values of r and use your finding to state whether or not the given r represents a significant linear correlation. Use a significance level of 0.05. r=0.543, n = 25 Critical values: r = ±0.487, significant linear correlation Critical values: r = ±0.487, no significant linear correlation Critical values: r = ±0.396, no significant linear correlation Critical values:r = ±0.396, significant linear correlation.
1. A researcher was interested in whether there was a relationship between stress and depression scores obtained from emergency health care providers. The data from 10 emergency workers are below. Stress Depression 38 26 28 16 42 34 18 22 26 15 45 24 32 18 26 18 22 12 33 15 Stress M = 31 , SD = 8.25 Depression M = 20, SD = 6.24 By hand, calculate the correlation coefficient. You are given the mean and standard...
Given the linear correlation coefficient r and the sample size n, determine the critical values of r and use your finding to state whether or not the given r represents a significant linear correlation. Use a significance level of 0.05. r = 0.353, n = 15
#1 part A.) To test H0: μ=100 versus H1: μ≠100, a random sample of size n=20 is obtained from a population that is known to be normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. (aa.) If x̅=104.4 and s=9.4, compute the test statistic. t0 = __________ (bb.) If the researcher decides to test this hypothesis at the α=0.01 level of significance, determine the critical value(s). Although technology or a t-distribution table can be used to find the critical value, in...
Car manufacturers are interested in whether there is a relationship between the size of car an individual drives and the number of people in the driver's family (that is, whether car size and family size are independent). To test this, suppose that 798 car owners were randomly surveyed with the following results. Conduct a test for independence at the 5% level. Family Size Sub & Compact Mid-size Full-size Van & Truck 1 20 35 41 34 2 21 50 69...
