Solutions

Expert Solution

95% confidence interval :

predcited value at X=8 is 7.65+8*0.87= 14.6100
std error confidence interval= s*√(1/n+(x0-x̅)2/Sxx) = 0.9950
for 95 % CI value of t= 2.3060
margin of error E=t*std error                            = 2.2945
lower confidence bound=sample mean-margin of error = 12.3155
Upper confidence bound=sample mean+margin of error= 16.9045

95% prediction interval:

std error prediction interval= s*√(1+1/n+(x0-x̅)2/Sxx) = 2.6552
for 95 % CI value of t= 2.3060
margin of error E=t*std error                            = 6.12
lower prediction bound=sample mean-margin of error = 8.4871
Upper prediction bound=sample mean+margin of error= 20.7329

We use the form ŷ = a + bx for the least-squares line. In some computer printouts, the least-squares equation is not given directly. Instead, the value of the constant a is given, and the coefficient b of the explanatory or predictor variable is displayed. Sometimes a is referred to as the constant, and sometimes as the intercept.
