Question

(a) Test the null hypothesis that there is no linear relationship between the pretest score and the score on the final test against the two-sided alternative. (Round your test statistic to three decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.)


Conclusion

We reject H0 at the 5% significance level.We do not reject H0 at the 5% significance level.    


(b) Would you reject this null hypothesis versus the one-sided alternative that the slope is positive? Explain your answer.
P =  

Conclusion

a) We could reject H0 at the 5% significance level.

b) We could not reject H0 at the 5% significance level.   

t = df = P =

Explanation / Answer

here test stat t=b1/std error =0.75/0.42 =1.786

p value =0.0779

degree of freedom =n-2=82-2=80

We do not reject H0 at the 5% significance level.

b)

P = 0.0390

a) We could reject H0 at the 5% significance level.
