Listed below are amounts of court income and salaries paid to the town justice. All amounts are in thousands of dollars. Construct a scatterplot, find the value of the linear correlation coefficient r, and find the P value using  α  = 0.05. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between court incomes and justice salaries? Based on the results, does it appear that justices might profit by levying larger fines?

Court Income: 65.0, 402.0, 1567.0, 1132.0, 273.0, 251.0, 112.0, 156.0, 34.0

Justice Salary: 31, 46, 91, 56, 47, 60, 26, 27, 18

a. What are the null and alternative hypotheses?

To test if there is a linear correlation between the court income and the justice salary, you have to use the following hypotheses:

H₀: ρ = 0

H₁: ρ ≠ 0

b. Construct a scatterplot.  See attachment.

c. The linear correlation coefficient r is: _____.

n= 9; ∑X₁= 3992; ∑X₁²= 4078308; ∑X₂= 409; ∑X₂²= 2232; ∑X₁X₂= 262123

r= 0.86

d. The P value is: _____.

This test is two-tailed and so is its p-value. I've calculated it using a statistics software:

p-value: 0.0027

e. Based on the results, does it appear that justices might profit by levying larger fines?

Using the p-value approach, the decision rule is:

If the p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If the p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The calculated p-value is less than the significance level, then the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

At a 5% significance level you can conclude that there is a linear correlation between the "court income" and the "Justice salary"

I hope this helps!

i'm not sure i quite understand, could you provide more information?

answer: the two figures are congruent.

step-by-step explanation: they're congruent because figure efgh is reflected across the x and y axis but it was also rotated.

hope it !
