per week and their final exam scores. A sample of 15
students is selected, and their study hours (in hours) and
final exam scores (out of 100) are recorded.
Correlation Matrix
Interpretation:
The computed 𝑟 is 0.936 which indicates a very high positive correlation. Since the p-value is less than 0.05, this
implies that there is a significant relationship between “Exam Scores” and “Study Hours”

of experience and corresponding annual salaries. Your
objective is to perform simple linear regression to model
the relationship between work experience and salary,
allowing you to predict salaries based on the number of
years of work experience.
Interpretation:
The computed 𝑟 is 0.981 whics shows very high positive correlation. The 𝑟2 which is 0.961 indicates the total variation in the
“Annual Salary” as explained by the “Years of Exeperience”.
Interpretation:
The p-value in the Omnibus ANOVA which is less than 0.05 suggests that the overall model is significant.

Intepretation:
Since the p-value is less than 0.05, then this implies that there is a significant difference between
the Test Value and Task Completed Time. The medium postive effect size indicates the
participants performed longer than the expected completion time.

Interpretation:
Since the overall p-value is less than 0.05, then we can say that there is a significant difference in the Plant Growth under
different setups. The post-hoc tukey test revealed that P and R shows significant difference with 𝑝 = 0.05. This implies that setup
R shows more growth than setup P.
