Question

(a) Test the null hypothesis that there is no linear relationship between the pretest score and the score on the final exam against the two-sided alternative. (Round your test statistic to three decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.)


Conclusion

We reject H0 at the 5% significance level.

We do not reject H0 at the 5% significance level.  

(b) Would you reject this null hypothesis versus the one-sided alternative that the slope is positive? Explain your answer.
P =  

Conclusion

t = df = P =

Explanation / Answer

t=b1/std error =0.75/0.43=1.7442

df =n-2=82-2=80

p value for above test stat =0.0850

conclusion :

We do not reject H0 at the 5% significance level.

b)p=0.0425

Conclusion : We reject H0 at the 5% significance level.
