R
(RSquare)
80.6% of the variation in the
global temperature can be
explained by the linear
relationship with carbon
dioxide concentration.
19.4% is unexplained.
4
Interpretation
There is a fairly strong
positive linear relationship
between annual carbon
dioxide concentration and
annual global temperature.

Testing Hypotheses
Question
Is
the linear relationship
between annual carbon
dioxide concentration and
annual global temperature
statistically significant?

Step 3 - Decision
Reject the null hypothesis
because the P-value is so
small (smaller than 0.05).
10
Step 4 – Conclusion
Based on our sample data,
there is a statistically
significant linear relationship
between annual carbon
dioxide concentration and
annual global temperature.

Interpretation – Part 1
The population slope
parameter relating CO2 to
temperature could be any
value between 0.0095 and
0.0156.
Units are o C/ppmv.
14
Interpretation – Part 2
We are 95% confident that
intervals based on random
samples from the population
with capture the actual
population slope parameter.
This is confidence in the
process.
15
Y-Intercept
When the Y-intercept is
interpretable within the
context of the problem, it may
be of interest to do inference
based on the estimated yintercept, ̂ 0 .
