In: Statistics and Probability
An architect wants to determine the relationship between the heights (in feet) of a building and the number of stories in the building. The data for a sample of 10 buildings are shown.
Stories (x) 64 54 40 31 45 38 42 41 37 40
Height (y) 841 725 635 616 615 582 535 520 511 485
Is there a significant linear correlation between the two variables ? Use α = .05
What would be the best predicted Height of a building with 44 Stories ? Round your answer to one decimal place (i.e. one digit to the right of the decimal point)
