Question
A researcher interested in determining if there is an association between head
circumference and brain volume tested for linear correlation at the a= 0.05
significance level. She took a random sample of twenty adults and measured
the head circumference and brain volume (using ultrasound) for each person in
the sample. The table above gives the paired data for the twenty adults. The
researcher determined there is positive linear correlation between head
circumference and brain volume at the 0.05 level of significance. With that
information answer the following questions.

circumference and brain volume from the output on the TI83/84 what is "a" the
y-intercept of the regression line?
A. a=.508
B. a=34.740
C. a=-110.572
D. a=-823.829
2. Since we've determined there is linear correlation between head
circumference and brain volume from the output on the T183/84 what is "b" the
slope of the regression?

B. b=.508
C. b=110.572
D. b=823.829
