A chocolate bar manufacturer with stores in most country towns and cities is interested in trying to estimate how daily sales are influenced by the price of their product. To do this, the company randomly chooses 6 stores in country towns and cities and offers the chocolate bar at different prices.

Using chocolate bar sales as the dependent variable, the company will conduct a simple linear regression on the data below:

City	Price ($) (X)	Sales (Y)
Toowoomba	1.30	100
Broken Hill	1.60	90
Bendigo	1.80	90
Kalgoorlie	2.00	40
Launceston	2.40	38
Port Augusta	2.90	32

The value, to three decimal places, of the test statistic to test the hypothesis

H₀: β₁ = 0

Most grocery stores use bar code scanning technologies that interface with cash registers used to process customer purchases. Cashiers use the scanners to read bar code labels attached to each product, which the system then uses to obtain unit prices, calculate transaction totals, including sales taxes, and update perpetual inventory databases. Similarly, cashiers scan bar codes on coupon or member discount cards presented by the customer to process discounts. Along with the scanning technologies, groceries use point-of-sale technologies that allow...
