Suppose that for two random variables, x and y, we test H0 :  = 0 against a two-sided alternative, and we are unable to reject the null hypothesis. We could therefore conclude that there is no relationship between x and y.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2

Is there enough evidence at the 1 significance level to infer that the average number of hours of exercise per week and the age at death are linearly related?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

H0 : 1 = 0 against H1 : 1  0
Rejection region: t > t0.01,36 = 2.719
Test statistic: t = 4.068
Conclusion: Reject the null hypothesis. Yes, there is enough evidence at the 1 significance level to infer that the average number of hours of exercise per week and the age at death are linearly related.
