Assignment:
Construct a scatterplot, find the value of the linear correlation coefficient r, and find the critical values of r from Table A-6 using ?? =0 .05. Determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation between the two variables. (Save your work because the same data sets will be used in Section 10-3 exercises.)
Commuters and Parking Spaces Listed below are the numbers of commuters and the numbers of parking spaces at different Metro-North railroad stations (based on data from Metro-North). Is there a linear correlation between the numbers of commuters and the numbers of parking spaces?
