One of the benefits of a linear regression model, is that it’s relatively easy to create a confidence interval on the mean response. Imagine you created a linear regression model from a dataset with n = 12, that applies over the range 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 10.0, where the mean value of x = 5.0 , the fitted model is Y = 74 + 15 x, Sxx = 0.75, and σ2. = 1.5 At what value of x does the minimum width of the 95% confidence interval on the mean response occur?

Two sections of a class in statistics were taught by two different methods. Students’ scores on a standardized test are shown in Table 5.12 . Do the results present evidence of a difference in the effectiveness of the two methods? (Use α = 0.05.)
Class A: 74, 97, 79, 88, 78, 93, 76, 75, 82, 86, 100, 94
Class B: 78, 92, 94, 78, 71, 85, 70, 79, 76, 93, 82, 69, 84

The sample data below are the typing speeds (in words per
minute) and reading speeds (in words per minute) of nine randomly
selected secretaries. Here, x denotes typing speed, and y denotes
reading speed.
| X | 60 | 56 | 52 | 63 | 70 | 58 | 44 | 79 | 62 |
| Y | 587 | 551 | 528 | 607 | 645 | 531 | 503 | 652 | 571 |
At the 10% significance level, predict the reading speed for a
typing speed of 74 words per
minute.
