The authors of a paper presented a correlation analysis to investigate the relationship between maximal lactate level x and muscular endurance y. The accompanying data was read from a plot in the paper.

State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses.H₀: = 0 H_a: > 0H₀: = 0 H_a: 0 H₀: = 0 H_a: < 0H₀: 0 H_a: = 0Compute the value of the sample correlation coefficient, r. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)r = Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to one decimal place and your P-value to three decimal places.)

State the conclusion in the problem context.Reject H₀. A positive correlation does not exist between maximum lactate level and muscular endurance.Fail to reject H₀. A positive correlation does not exist between maximum lactate level and muscular endurance. Fail to reject H₀. A positive correlation exists between maximum lactate level and muscular endurance.Reject H₀. A positive correlation exists between maximum lactate level and muscular endurance.(b)If a regression analysis were to be carried out to predict endurance from lactate level, what proportion of observed variation in endurance could be attributed to the approximate linear relationship? Answer the question without doing any regression calculations.
