Specimens of blood from 10 different animals were analyzed for blood count, say, Y (in units of 100) and packed cell volume count X (in mm^3) with results as given below. Assuming normality, test the hypothesis that the true correlation coefficient p between blood count and volume count is zero. If the test is rejected, use the Inference about p method to find a 95% confidence interval for p
