What is the relationship between the amount of time statistics students study per week and their final exam scores? The results of the survey are shown below. Time 3 1 10 2 3 16 16 8 Score 54 61 70 65 67 90 100 81 a. Find the correlation coefficient: 7 = Round to 2 decimal places. b. The null and alternative hypotheses for correlation are: Ho: ? = 0 H1 : 2v / 0 The p-value is: (Round to four decimal places) of the study. c. Use a level of significance of a = 0.05 to state the conclusion of the hypothesis test in the context There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the time spent studying and the score on the final exam. Thus, the regression line is useful. O There is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that a student who spends more time studying will score higher on the final exam than a student who spends less time studying, There is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the time spent studying and the score on the final exam. Thus, the use of the regression line is not appropriate. O There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that a student who spends more time studying will score higher on the final exam than a student who spends less time studying. d. 72 = (Round to two decimal places) e. Interpret 72 : 82% of all students will receive the average score on the final exam. O There is a large variation in the final exam scores that students receive, but if you only look at students who spend a fixed amount of time studying per week, this variation on average is reduced by 82%. O Given any group that spends a fixed amount of time studying per week, 82% of all of those students will receive the predicted score on the final exam. There is a 82% chance that the regression line will be a good predictor for the final exam score based on the time spent studying. f. The equation of the linear regression line is: y = (Please show your answers to two decimal places) g. Use the model to predict the final exam score for a student who spends 6 hours per week studying Final exam score = (Please round your answer to the nearest whole number.) h. Interpret the slope of the regression line in the context of the question: As x goes up, y goes up. The slope has no practical meaning since you cannot predict what any individual student will score on the final. For every additional hour per week students spend studying, they tend to score on averge 2.29 higher on the final exam. i. Interpret the y-intercept in the context of the question: The y-intercept has no practical meaning for this study. If a student does not study at all, then that student will score 57 on the final exam. The average final exam score is predicted to be 57. The best prediction for a student who doesn't study at all is that the student will score 57 on the final exam
