Explanation / Answer

The statistical software output for this problem is:

Simple linear regression results:
Dependent Variable: y
Independent Variable: x
y = 109.48299 + 4.8224927 x
Sample size: 12
R (correlation coefficient) = 0.78809756
R-sq = 0.62109777
Estimate of error standard deviation: 666.52549

Parameter estimates:


Analysis of variance table for regression model:

Hence,

a) r = 0.788

b) t0.025 = + 2.228

c) t = 4.049

d) Yes
