1. Writing and Vocabulary

P- Value : 0.001 < 0.05
Reject H0
Interpretation
There is significant positive relationship between writing ability and vocabulary.
2. Writing and Grammar
P- Value : 0.123 > 0.05
Do not Reject H0
Interpretation
There is no significant positive relationship between writing ability and grammar.

Interpretation:

Vocabulary and grammar account for 50.7% of variability in writing ability.

50.7% of variability in writing ability can be explained by its relationship with vocabulary
and grammar.
