Answer:
the critical value for r at [tex]r_{0.05, 23}[/tex] = 0.396
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
the linear correlation coefficient r = 0.767
the sample size n = 25
the level of significance ∝ = 0.05
The degree of freedom is expressed with the formula df = n - 2
df = 25 - 2
df = 23
the critical value for r at [tex]r_{0.05, 23}[/tex] = 0.396
The linear correlation coefficient r = 0.767 is not in the region between the critical values of -0.396 and +0.396. We can therefore conclude that the linear correlation coefficient is significant.
