(a) Compute the Pearson correlation coefficient. (Round your
answer to three decimal places.)
(b) Compute the coefficient of determination. (Round your answer to
three decimal places.)
(c) Using a two-tailed test at a 0.05 level of significance, state
the decision to retain or reject the null hypothesis.
Retain the null hypothesis
.Reject the null hypothesis.
