Please compute Pearson correlation coefficients for (X, Y) and (X, Z). Are these two
correlation coefficients significantly different from zero for a 0.05 significance level?
Please show your calculation process and the statistics you use to justify your conclusion.
Note: you need to calculate two correlations coefficients and conduct two hypothesis
tests.
The correlation coefficients are worth 14 points; the hypothesis tests are worth 6 points.
Please make sure to include the degrees of freedom and critical values for the tests.
