Answer:
The following scatterplot shows the percentage of the vote a candidate received in the 2016 senatorial elections
1 answer:
The critical values corresponding to a 0.01 significance level used to test the null hypothesis of ρs = 0 is (a) -0.881 and 0.881
<h3>How to determine the critical values corresponding to a 0.01 significance level?</h3>The scatter plot of the election is added as an attachment
From the scatter plot, we have the following highlights
- Number of paired observations, n = 8
- Significance level = 0.01
Start by calculating the degrees of freedom (df) using
df =n - 2
Substitute the known values in the above equation
df = 8 - 2
Evaluate the difference
df = 6
Using the critical value table;
At a degree of freedom of 6 and significance level of 0.01, the critical value is
z = 0.834
From the list of given options, 0.834 is between -0.881 and 0.881
Hence, the critical values corresponding to a 0.01 significance level used to test the null hypothesis of ρs = 0 is (a) -0.881 and 0.881
