Question

) The following table shows 10 communities ranked by decayed, missing, or filled (DMF) teeth per 100 children and fluoride concentration in ppm in the public water supply:

                                                               Rank by

                                    DMF Teeth                            Fluoride
Community            per 100 children X                Concentration Y

1                                           8                                          1
2                                           9                                          3
3                                           7                                          4
4                                           3                                          9
5                                           2                                          8

6                                           4                                          7
7                                           1                                          10
8                                           5                                           6
9                                           6                                           5
10                                        10                                          2


Do these data provide sufficient evidence to indicate that the number of DMF teeth per 100 children tends to decrease as fluoride concentration increases?
