When nicotine is absorbed by the body, cotinine is produced. A measurement of cotinine in the body is therefore a good indicator of how much as person smokes. Listed below are the reported numbers of cigarettes smoked per day and the measured amounts of nicotine (in ng / ml). (The values are from randomly selected subjects in the National Health Examination Survey). Is there a significant linear correlation? Explain the result. Use the rank correlation coefficient to test for a correlation between the two variables and explain via scatterplots why the rank correlation is preferred in this context.
