What is the relationship between the attendance at a major league ball game and the total number of runs scored? Attendance figures (in thousands) and the runs scored for 12 randomly selected games are shown below.

1. Find the correlation coefficient:  r=____    Round to 2 decimal places.


2. The null and alternative hypotheses for correlation are:
   H0:H0:      == 0
   H1:H1:       ≠≠ 0
   The p-value is:    (Round to four decimal places)
   
   
   
   


3. Use a level of significance of α=0.05α=0.05 to state the conclusion of the hypothesis test in the context of the study.
   Please select from the following:
   
   
   
   
   

   
   
   • There is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the attendance of baseball games and the runs scored. Thus, the use of the regression line is not appropriate.
   
   
   • There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that a game with higher attendance will have fewer runs scored than a game with lower attendance.
   
   
   • There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that a game with a higher attendance will have more runs scored than a game with lower attendance.
   
   
   • There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the attendance of baseball games and the runs scored. Thus, the regression line is useful.
