C.
r=0.9084 suggest a strong positive linear correlation between the given
variables.
As their age increases, their systolic blood pressures also increases.
D.

Critical value = 0.632

There is enough evidence to conclude that there is a significant linear correlation


between the age of men and their systolic blood pressures.
