Researchers wondered whether the size of a person's brain was related to the individual's mental capacity. They selected a sample of 5 females and 5 males and measured their MRI counts and IQ scores. The data is reported to the right. Complete parts (a) through (d) below.

Females Males
MRI IQ MRI IQ
816,932 133 1,001,121 140
833,868 132 1,038,436 139
856,472 140 1,079,550 141
866,662 130 924,059 136
948,066 133 955,033 139
