Q. You conduct a hypothesis test and you observe values for the sample mean and sample standard deviation when n = 25 that do not lead to the rejection of Ho (null hypothesis).

d. May either increase or decrease
Q. What does a beta of 0.478 mean?
a. That the relationship between the independent and dependent variables is not linear
