Answer:

a) n=5 \sum x = 30, \sum y = 25, \sum xy = 162, \sum x^2 =206, \sum y^2 =155  

r=\frac{5(162)-(30)(25)}{\sqrt{[5(206) -(30)^2][5(155) -(25)^2]}}=0.42967  

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.430 rounded

b) Null hypothesis: \rho =0

Alternative hypothesis: \rho \neq 0  

Because the correlation coeffcient is positive and the absolute value of the correlation coefficient 0.430 is not greater than the critical value for this dataset, no linear relation exists between x and y.

And the reason is because we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

We have the following data:

x: 2  6  6  7  9

y: 3  2  6  9  5

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:  

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

For our case we have this:

n=5 \sum x = 30, \sum y = 25, \sum xy = 162, \sum x^2 =206, \sum y^2 =155  

r=\frac{5(162)-(30)(25)}{\sqrt{[5(206) -(30)^2][5(155) -(25)^2]}}=0.42967  

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.430 rounded

Part b

In order to test the hypothesis if the correlation coefficient it's significant we have the following hypothesis:

Null hypothesis: \rho =0

Alternative hypothesis: \rho \neq 0

The statistic to check the hypothesis is given by:

t=\frac{r \sqrt{n-2}}{\sqrt{1-r^2}}

And is distributed with n-2 degreed of freedom. df=n-2=5-2=3

In our case the value for the statistic would be:

t=\frac{0.430\sqrt{5-2}}{\sqrt{1-(0.430)^2}}=0.825

The critical value for n =5 is given by the table attached. We can see that the critical value is r_{crit}= 0.878, and then the final conclusion would be:

Because the correlation coeffcient is positive and the absolute value of the correlation coefficient 0.430 is not greater than the critical value for this dataset, no linear relation exists between x and y

And the reason is because we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Mark and Julio are selling flower bulbs for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy bags of windflower bulbs and packages of croc
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Bag of windflower bulbs costs $8.50

Package of crocus bulbs costs $17.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x be the price of one bag of windflower bulbs and $y be the price of one  package of crocus bulbs.

1. Mark sold 2 bags of windflower bulbs for $2x and 5 packages of crocus bulbs for $5y. In total he earned $(2x+5y) that is $105. So,

2x+5y=105

2. Julio sold 9 bags of windflower bulbs for $9x and 5 packages of crocus bulbs for $5y. In total he earned $(9x+5y) that is $164.50. So,

9x+5y=164.50

3. You get the system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}2x+5y=105\\ \\9x+5y=164.50\end{array}\right.

From the first equation

5y=105-2x

Substitute it into the second equation:

9x+105-2x=164.50

7x=164.50-105

7x=59.5

x=$8.50

So,

5y=105-2·8.5

5y=105-17

5y=88

y=$17.60
