ora sampie ght bear researchers measured the Cl : ces around the bears chests and weigh. can be expkinsd by the lirear relionship between waighr and chest size? eched the boars.

No, because the abrclr velu othc test tatisti: cxced th cntica vlc cf 0.707 C. Yes, becausc the test statistic fals between the cntic values of-0.707 and 0.707 b. Vhat proportion of the varietion in weight can be expkinsd by the linear relaicnship between weigh and chest size? Hound co three dacima places as neaced.)

Explanation / Answer

(a) Option (B) Yes, because the absolute value of test statistic exceeds the critical value the 0.707

(b) r2 = (0.875)2 = 0.766

  0.766 propotion of the variation in weight can be explained by the linear relationship between weight and chest size.
