In this problem, we use your critical values table to explore the significance of r based on different sample sizes. (a) Is a sample correlation coefficient ρ = 0.84 significant at the α = 0.01 level based on a sample size of n = 3 data pairs? What about n = 10 data pairs? (Select all that apply.) No, because the absolute value of the given correlation coefficient is smaller than that for a sample size of n = 3...
