1. The two variables have a correlation coefficient equal to - 0.60 from a sample size of 6. Perform a hypothesis test to determine if the population correlation coefficient p is greater than zero using a = 0.05. (1) Identify null / alternative hypotheses. (2) Determine the test statistic. (3) Determine the critical value. (4) State your conclusion.

The accompanying data have a sample correlation coefficient, rounded to three decimal places, of -0.160. Perform a hypothesis test with the data to determine if the population correlation coefficient ̑ is less than zero using ̑=0.01. What are the correct null and alternative hypotheses? A. H0: ̑ ≤ 0 H1: ̑ > 0 B. H0: ̑ = 0 H1: ̑ ≠ 0 C. H0: ̑ ≥ 0 H1: ̑ < 0 D. H0: ̑ ≠ 0 H1: ̑ = 0

When testing the claim H0: p = 0 for pairs of (x, Y) data, the Pearson correlation coefficient test statistic is 0.796. Find the critical value for this test and state the decision and conclusion of this test at a significance level of 0.05. The sample is too small for a conclusion at the 0.05 level. Reject H0: p = 0 and conclude that there is no linear correlation. Fail to reject H0: p = 0 and conclude that there is a linear correlation.

Consider the following competing hypotheses: H0: ρxy ≥ 0 HA: ρxy < 0 The sample consists of 35 observations and the sample correlation coefficient is -0.51. a-2. Find the p-value. p-value < 0.01 p-value > 0.10 0.05 p-value < 0.10 0.025 p-value < 0.05 0.01 p-value < 0.025
