Suppose that people who get either very little or a great deal of sleep tend to score highest on a measure of happiness.

Is there a correlation between the number of hours of sleep you get before a test and your test score? Use the following data to answer the question with the correlation coefficient and least square regression line. HOURS OF SLEEP (X) TEST SCORE (Y) 8 81 8 80 6 75 5 65 7 91 6 80 If a person sleeps 7.5 hours, what should they score on the test?

You want to explore the relationship between the scores students receive on their first quiz and their first exam. You believe that there is a positive correlation between the two scores. What are the most appropriate null and alternative hypotheses regarding the population correlation? Select one: a. H0 : p = 0 and H1 : p < 1 b. H0 : p = 0 and H1 : p ? 0 c. H0 : p = 0 and H1 : p > 0 d. H0 : p = 0 and H1 : p < 0
