Imagine you are doing an ecological study and you would like to find out if there is a correlation between the number of penguin eggs in a nest and the age of the breeding female. a) Formulate the null hypothesis for this study. (0.5 points) b) You test the null hypothesis with your dataset and find that the P-value is 0.027. Do you accept your hypothesis or reject it? Explain why.
