Use the Following Information to Answer the Question -Choose the Correct Observed Value of the Test Statistic and Professor

question 25

Multiple Choice

Use the following information to answer the question. A humanities professor is interesting in learning whether there is a
positive association between average online homework scores and the final class average in an online humanities course. The
computer output below shows the results from a regression model in which the final class average was predicted by the
average online homework score. Assume that the conditions of the linear regression model are satisfied. $$\begin{array} { | l l | } \hline { \text { LinRegTTest for } y = a + b x } \\\hline \beta > 0 & a = - 11.15986949 \\t = 8.285803594 & b = 1.111745514 \\p = 2.0898031 E - 4 & s = 4.349532611 \\d f = 124 & r = .9654613007 \\\hline\end{array}$$
-Choose the correct observed value of the test statistic and the p-value. Round to the nearest thousandth.

• A) \(t = 4.345 , p = 0.005\)
• B) \(t = 1.112 , p = 0.000\)
• C) \(t = 8.286 , p = 0.000\)
• D) \(t = 8.286 , p = 2.090\)
