Question: In a study conducted in Italy .10 patients with hypertriglyceridemia were placed on a low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet. Before the start of diet, cholesterol and triglyceride measurements were recorded for each subject.

Patient Cholesterol Level (mmol/1) Triglyceride Level (mmol/1)

1 5.12 2.3
2 6.18 2.5
3 6.77 2.95
4 6.65 3.77
5 6.36 4.18
6 5.90 5.31
7 5.48 5.53
8 6.02 8.83
9 10.34 9.48
10 8.51 14.20

Construct a scatter plot for these data.


Does there appear to be any evidence of a linear relationship between cholesterol and triglyceride levels prior to the diet?

Compute the correlation coefficient.
