The weights (in pounds) of eight vehicles and the variabilities of their braking distances (in feet) when stopping on a dry K surface are shown in the table. At a = 0.05, is there enough evidence to conclude that there is a significant linear correlation between vehicle weight and variability in braking distance on a dry surface? Weight, x 5970 5340 6500 5100 5810 4800 5700 5880 Variability, y 1.74 1.91 1.94 1.57 1.69 1.50 1.56 1.70 Setup the hypothesis for the test. Ho: P Ha: P Calculate the test statistic. t=(Round to two decimal places as needed.) Calculate the P-value. P-value = (Round to three decimal places as needed.) What is your conclusion? the null hypothesis. There enough evidence at the 5% level of significance to conclude that there a significant linear correlation between vehicle weight and variability in braking distance on a dry surface
