Question: Testing for a Linear Correlation. In Exercises \(13-28\), construct a scatterplot, find the value of the linear correlation coefficient \(r\) and find the critical values \(r_c\) from Table A-6 using \(\alpha=0.05\). Determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation between the two variables.

CPI and Pizza. The paired values of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the cost of a slice of pizza from Table 10-1 in the Chapter Problem are listed below. Is there a linear correlation between the CPI and the cost of a slice of pizza?

CPI Cost of Pizza
30.2 0.15
48.3 0.35
112.3 1
162.2 1.25
191.9 1.75
197.8 2
