Question

The scores (x) on a computer science aptitude test range from 0 to 25, and the course grade (y) with possible values: 0.0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, were recorded for 20 students in an introductory computer science course as shown below.

12. Find the coefficient of linear correlation for this data.
13. Give the p-value if this data is used to test H o: = 0() vs. Ha: > 0 at = 0.1.
What is your decision?

QUESTIONS 14 THROUGH16 ARE BASED ON THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION: Consider the following bivariate data.

14. Find the critical value of r.

15. Find the calculated value of r; namely r* .

16. State the decision.

QUESTIONS 17 THROUGH 25 ARE BASED ON THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
The average number of client contacts per month, x, and the sales volume, y (in $1000), were recorded of each of 10 salespeople.

17. Draw a scatter diagram of the data

18. Does the scatter diagram suggest a linear relationship between x and y?

x 18 10 15 20 18 13 20 16 12 22 y 2.5 1.5 3.0 3.5 2.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 2.0 4.0

Explanation / Answer

12.

Using technology, we get the correlation,              
              
r =    0.833154841   [ANSWER]

*******************

13.      
              
              
As t = r sqrt [(n - 2) / (1 - r^2)], then as n = 20,              
              
t =    6.391541233          
              
As alpha =    0.1, right tailed, and          

df = n - 2 =    18          
              
Then using technology,

P = 2.55269*10^-6 [ANSWER, P VALUE]

As P < 0.1, we reject Ho. [DECISION]
There is significant evidence that correlation between the variables is significant at 0.1 level.   [CONCLUSION]
