Expert verified

It is 99%sure that the rise in mean price per hundreds of square feet increases in size for custom homes will be between 1695and3009.

Step by step solution

Given information

The given data is

Explanation

Regression t-interval

STEP 1: For a 99%confidence interval,

α=0.01

n=9

df=n-2

=9-2=7

From the technology

tα/2=t0.01/2

t0.005=3.500

The end points of the confidence interval for β1are calculated using the following formula

bI±ta/2seSxx

Computation table

Sxy=∑xiyi-∑xi∑yi/n

=169993-(270)(5552)/9

=169993-1499040/9

=169993-166560=3433

Sxx=∑xi2-∑xi2/n

=8316-(270)2/9

=8316-72900/9

=8316-8100=216

The total sum of square SST is

Syy=∑yi2-∑yi2/n

=3504412-(5552)2/9

=3504412-30824704/9=3504412-3424967.111=79444.88889

The regression sum of squares SSR is

SSR=Sxy2Sxx

=(3433)2216

=11785489216

SSE=SST-SSR

=79444.88889-54562.44907=24882.43981

The slope of the regression line is calculated using the formula,

b1=SxySxx

=3433216

=15.89351852

The formula for calculating the standard error of the estimate is,

se=SSEn-2

=24882.439819-2

localid="1652459077820" =59.6207536≈59.621

Substituting the values

15.89351852±3.500×59.621216

15.89351852±14.19837459or localid="1652459180822" 1.695to30.091

We can be 99%sure that the rise in mean price per hundreds of square feet increase in size for custom homes will be between 1695and 3009.

Body Fat. In the paper "Total Body Composition by Dual-Photon ( G153id) Absorptiometry" (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol.40,pp.834-839), R. Mazess et al. studied methods for quantifying body composition. Eighteen randomly selected adults were measured for percentage of body fat, using dual-photon absorptiometry. Each adult's age and percentage of body fat are shown on the WeissStats site.

b. Decide, at the 5%significance level, whether the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the predictor variable is useful for predicting the response variable.
