A local tire dealer wants to predict the number of tires sold each month.He believes that the number of tires sold is a linear function of the amount of money invested in advertising.He randomly selects 6 months of data consisting of tire sales (in thousands of tires)and advertising expenditures (in thousands of dollars).Based on the data set with 6 observations,the simple linear regression model yielded the following results.
Determine the values of SSE and SST.

An experiment was performed on a certain metal to determine if the strength is a function of heating time.The sample size consists of 10 metal sheets.The simple linear regression equation is
The time is in minutes and the strength is measured in pounds per square inch.One of the 10 metal sheets was heated for 4 minutes and the resulting strength was 6 lbs.per square inch.Calculate the value of the residual for this observation.

An experiment was performed on a certain metal to determine if the strength is a function of heating time.The 95 percent confidence interval for the average strength of a metal sheet when the average heating time is 4 minutes is from 4.325 to 5.675.Therefore,we are confident at α = .05 that the average strength of this metal heated for four minutes is between 4.325 and 5.675 pounds per square inch.Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

A local tire dealer wants to predict the number of tires sold each month.He believes that the number of tires sold is a linear function of the amount of money invested in advertising.He randomly selects 6 months of data consisting of tire sales (in thousands of tires)and advertising expenditures (in thousands of dollars).Based on the data set with 6 observations,the simple linear regression equation of the least squares line is ŷ = 3 + 1x.
MSE = 4
Using the sums of the squares given above,determine the 90 percent confidence interval for the mean value of monthly tire sales when the advertising expenditure is $5000.
