Answer:
a) Sample correlation coefficient, r = 0.7411
bi) test statistic, t = 4.102
bii) P-value = 0.000736
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The formula for the sample correlation coefficient is given by the formula:
r = 0.7511
b)
i) formula for the test statistic is given by the formula:
sample size, n = 4
t = 4.102
ii) Degree of freedom, df = n -2
df = 14 -2
df = 12
The P-value is calculate from the degree of freedom and the test statistic using excel
P-value =(=TDIST(t,df,tail))
P-value = (=TDIST(4.1,12,1)
P-value = 0.000736
Answer: 15/91 which is choice B
=================================================================
There are two methods to find this answer.
Method 1) We have 6 girls and 8+6 = 14 students. The probability of picking a girl is 6/14 = 3/7. After the first girl is chosen, we have 5 girls left out of 14-1 = 13 students overall. The probability of picking another girl (assuming the first selection was a girl) is 5/13. Multiply these probabilities: (3/7)*(5/13) = (3*5)/(7*13) = 15/91
--------------------
Method 2) We can use the nCr combination formula. Order does not matter.
We have nCr = 6 C 2 = 15 ways to pick 2 girls. See the attached image below for the steps (figure 1)
Out of nCr = 14 C 2 = 91 ways to pick 2 students. See the attached image below for the steps (figure 2)
So that's another way to get the answer 15/91.
