3. Martin is investigating the relationship between a person’s daily caffeine consumption,
c milligrams, and the amount of sleep they get, h hours, per night. He collected this
information from 20 people and the results are summarised below.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA

∑c = 3660 ∑h = 126 ∑c2 = 973228
∑ch = 20023.4 Scc = 303448 Sch = –3034.6

Martin calculates the product moment correlation coefficient for these data and
obtains –0.833

(a) Give a reason why this value supports a linear relationship between c and h
(1)

The amount of sleep per night is the response variable.

(b) Explain what you understand by the term ‘response variable’.

(1)

Martin says that for each additional 100 mg of caffeine consumed, the expected number

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA

of hours of sleep decreases by 1

(c) Determine, by calculation, whether or not the data support this statement.
(3)

(d) Use the data to calculate an estimate for the expected number of hours of sleep per
night when no caffeine is consumed.
