What is the correlation coefficient for this data set?
       r =
(report answer accurate to at least 3 decimal places)

To find the p-value for a correlation coefficient, you need to convert to a t-score: `t = r*sqrt((n-2)/(1-r^2))` This t-score is from a t-distribution with `n-2` degrees of freedom.

What is the p-value for this correlation coefficient?
       p-value =
(report answer accurate to at least 4 decimal places)

Your final conclusion is that...
