Essay

The data below are the temperatures on randomly chosen days during a summer class and the number of
absences on those days. Test the significance of the correlation coefficient using α $\alpha$ = 0.02, and the claim ρ $Q = 0$ $$\begin{array} { l | l | l | l | l | l | l | l | l | l | } \text { Temperature, x } & 71 & 84 & 90 & 89 & 87 & 97 & 74 & 99 & 79 \\\hline \text { Number of absences, y } & 12 & 16 & 19 & 19 & 17 & 24 & 13 & 24 & 14\end{array}$$
