A study is conducted to determine the relationship between a driver's age and the number of accidents he or she has over a 1-year period. The data are shown here. If there is a significant relationship, predict the number of accidents of a driver who is 28.
Driver's | No. of |
Age x | accidents y |
16 | 3 |
24 | 2 |
18 | 5 |
17 | 2 |
23 | 0 |
27 | 1 |
32 | 1 |
1. What is your alternative hypothesis (H1)?
2. Compute the value of the correlation coefficient.
3. Determine the regression equation line even if the equation is not valid.
4. Test the significance of the correlation coefficient and the regression equation at a level of significance of .01.
