The accompanying table lists the word counts measured from men and women in 56 couple relationships. Construct a scatterplot, find the value of the linear correlation coefficient r, and find the P-value of r. Determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation between the two variables. Use a significance level of
alphaαequals=0.010
The linear correlation coefficient r is ____
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
(Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)
The test statistic is ____
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
The P-value is ____
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Because the P-value of the linear correlation coefficient is ___ the significance level, there ____ sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between words spoken by men and women in couples.
