Question

An agent for a residential real estate company has the business objective of developing more accurate estimates of the monthly rental cost for apartments. Toward that goal, the agent would like to use the size of an apartment, as defined by square footage, to predict the monthly rental cost. The agent selects a sample 48 one-bedroom apartments and collects and stores a data in dataset RentSilverSpring (can be found in both editions of datasets on the Blackboard). 7. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there an evidence of a linear relationship between the size of the apartment and the monthly rent? 8. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population slope. 9. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean monthly rental for all onebedroom apartments that have 800 square feet in size. 10. Construct a 95% prediction interval of the monthly rental for an individual one-bedroom apartment that is 800 square feet in size
