Instructions. Perform the test for correlation between the two variables. Find the correlation coefficient and explain the direction and strength. Explain the coefficient of determination. If acceptable to use the regression equation, explain the slope and y-intercept. Find the predicted value per question. 1. Listed below are systolic blood pressure measurements (mm Hg) taken from the right and left arms of the same woman. Is there a correlation between the right arm and the left arm? Find the best predicted systolic blood pressure in the left arm given that the systolic blood pressure in the right arm is 100 mm Hg. Right arm 102 101 94 79 79 99 87 109 108 86 92 Left arm 175 169 182 146 144 101 178 156 132 145 167

Right arm blood pressure is the predictor variable. Find the best predicted systolic blood pressure in the left arm given that the systolic blood pressure in the right arm is 80 mm Hg. Use a significance level of 0.05. Right Arm: 102 101 93 75 76 Left Arm: 174 169 148 148 146 Click the icon to view the critical values of the Pearson correlation coefficient r. The regression equation is y = + x. (Round to one decimal place as needed). Given that the systolic blood pressure in the right arm is 80 mm Hg, the best predicted systolic blood pressure in the left arm is mm Hg (Round to one decimal place as needed).

Listed below are systolic blood pressure measurements (in mm Hg) obtained from the same woman. Find the regression equation, letting the right arm blood pressure be the predictor (x) variable. Find the best predicted systolic blood pressure in the left arm given that the systolic blood pressure in the right arm is 90 mm Hg. Use a significance level of 0.05. Right Arm: 102 101 94 76 77 Left Arm: 177 170 145 143 145 Click the icon to view the critical values of the Pearson correlation coefficient r. The regression equation is ŷ = ◻ + ◻x. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
