A school claims that 15% of its students are out of uniform each day. The principal believes that this number is over-exaggerated and that almost all of the students wear them. The principal wants to test it at α =0.05. The principal takes a random sample of 80 students and finds that 12 are out of uniform.

You want to know if there is an association between the age of the person and the type of phone they have. This is on the basis of people being of older age are more likely to only have a landline, while those who are younger are more likely to have a cellphone. Use a level of 5% significance.

Is there a relationship between a person's body temperature and their resting pulse rate? A researcher collected data on  x= body temperature (in oF) and  y= pulse rate (in beats per minute) for each of 20 randomly selected students at a university. The equation of the LSRL relating these two variables is  \hat{y}=-408.904+4.944x  and the standard error of the slope is  2.8712 . Do these data provide convincing evidence at the 1% significance level of a linear relationship between body temperature and resting pulse rate for students at this university?
