Beginning in 1997, New York State has published annual "report cards" (available on the internet) that provide information on a variety of measures of the "success" of elementary and secondary school systems. In examining the data for 1996, a reporter for the Syracuse Newspapers, observed that a relationship appeared to exist between academic performance and the level of student poverty for the 124 schools in central New York area. To evaluate this relationship, a regression model was formulated as:

RDi = βo + β1LUNi + ui

where:

RDi = proportion of 3rd grade students in school i achieving a "mastery" level score
LUNi = proportion of students in school i eligible for free or reduced price lunches

State an appropriate set of null and alternative hypotheses concerning the parameter β1.
