ou wish to determine if there is a negative linear correlation
between the age of a driver and the number of driver deaths. The
following table represents the age of a driver and the number of
driver deaths per 100,000. Use a significance level of 0.05 and
round all values to 4 decimal places.
Driver Age | Number of Driver Deaths per 100,000 |
---|---|
62 | 33 |
37 | 19 |
55 | 18 |
20 | 22 |
32 | 29 |
75 | 32 |
30 | 28 |
