6. The following calibration graph data were obtained for determination of p-fluorophenol  by LC/ESI/MS.

Estimate the linearity of the data using the lack-of-fit test (at confidence interval 95%). First, find the number of degrees of freedom,  Fcalc and Ftab (with two decimal places) using the lack-of-fit test. Finally, make the decision whether the data is linear or not based on the results of the lack-of-fit test (taking into account the intercept).
