Consider the Data Set Shown $\begin{array}{|rr|}\hline \underline{x} & \underline{y} \\7 & 5 \\7 & 8 \\9 & 7 \\11 & 9 \\12 & 8 \\16 & 11\\\hline\end{array}$

Essay

Consider the data set shown. Convert these values into ranks and conduct a Spearman's rank correlation analysis.
​
$\begin{array}{|rr|}\hline \underline{x} & \underline{y} \\7 & 5 \\7 & 8 \\9 & 7 \\11 & 9 \\12 & 8 \\16 & 11\\\hline\end{array}$ (a) Calculate the Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and standard error.
(b) Calculate the t-value for the Spearman's rank correlation coefficient.
(c) Using your results from (a) and (b), make a statement about the significance of the association between the X and Y values.
