Your Answer:
For this problem:
n=28 amd for 95% confidence value is: 0.37389
r=.35 and IrI=.35
Since the absolute value of r=.35 is less than critical value of 0.37389, there is no relation exist.
Note that for n=28 and 95% we get a value from the chart of .37389. The absolute of r is |r|=.35,
which is below .37389. So no linear relation exists.

Suppose you have 34 data points and you calculate the sample correlation coefficient and find that r = - .
35. Can you be 95% confident that a linear relation exists between the variables? If so, is the relation
positive or negative? Justify you answer.
Your Answer:
For this problem:
n=34 and for 95% confidence value from the chart is: .33879
r=-.35 and IrI =.35. So, .35 is above .33879 and we have negative linear relation exist.
Note that for n=34 and 95% we get a value from the chart of .33879. The absolute of r is |r|=.35,
which is above .33879. So a negative linear relation exists.
