A) Plot this data on a scatter diagram with the median age as the dependent variable.
B) Find the correlation coefficient.
C) A regression analysis was performed and the resulting regression equation is Median age = 31.4 + 0.272 population. Interpret the meaning off the slope.
D) Estimate the Median age for a city of 2.5 million people.
E) Here is the regression of the software output. What does it tell you?
F) Test at the .10 significance level whether there is a significant relationship between these two variables.
