Question: The marketing manager of a large supermarket chain would like to use shelf space to predict the sales of pet food. For a random sample of 12 similar stores, she gathered the following information regarding the shelf space, in feet, devoted to pet food & the weekly sales in hundreds of dollars. Use these data to answer questions 1 through 3.

Store	1	2	3	4	5	6
Shelf Space	5	5	5	10	10	10
Weekly Sales	1.6	2.2	1.4	1.9	2.4	2.6

Store	7	8	9	10	11	12
Shelf Space	15	15	15	20	20	20
Weekly Sales	2.3	2.7	2.8	2.6	2.9	3.1

[1.] Is the correlation between weekly sales & shelf space significant at the .01 level of significance?

[A] No, the sample correlation coefficient does not exceed the critical value.

[B] Yes, the p-value of the test for significance is less than .01.

[C] Yes, the value of the test statistic does not exceed the critical value.

[D] Yes, the computed t-test statistic is less than the critical value.

[2.] Find the estimated regression equation?

[A] ? = 2.63 + 0.724x

[B] ? = 1.45 + 0.724x

[C] ? = 1.45 + 0.074x

[D] ? = 2.63 - 0.174x

[3.] Calculate the value of the sample correlation coefficient between weekly sales & shelf space.

[A] 0.684

[B] 0.827

[C] 0.652

[D] 0.308
