Math Problem Statement
A researcher wants to know whether there is a relationship between a stoach’s wingspan (𝑊 , the predictor) and its nest height (𝐻 , the response). A sample of 85 stoaches is observed, and for each, the wing-span (in cm) and the nest height (in m) are recorded.
The observed data meet the assumptions for a linear regression, so the researcher fits the regression model and obtains a regression equation ℎ̂ =−4.081+0.306𝑤, with standard error for the coefficient of 𝑤 equal to 0.13.
Determine the 𝑝 -value from a test for a statistically significant linear dependence of nest height on wing-span. (Give your answer to 4 decimal places.)
