Solve the problem. -After obtaining a regression line y=β0+β1xy = \beta _ { 0 } + \beta _ { 1 } x , a confidence interval for the mean of all values yy for which x=x0x = x 0 can be obtained as follows: (y^E,y^+E)( \hat { y } - \mathrm { E } , \hat { \mathrm { y } } + \mathrm { E } ) where E=(tα/2)se1n+n(x0xˉ)2nx2(x)2E = \left( t _ { \alpha / 2 } \right) \operatorname { se } \sqrt { \frac { 1 } { n } + \frac { n \left( x _ { 0 } - \bar { x } \right) ^ { 2 } } { n \sum x ^ { 2 } - \left( \sum x \right) ^ { 2 } } } The critical value tα/2t _ { \alpha / 2 } is found from the t-table using n2n - 2 degrees of freedom. Use the data below to obtain a 95%95 \% confidence interval estimate of the mean test score of all students who study 10.510.5 hours. Note that the equation of the regression line is y^=52.8804+3.405x\hat { y } = 52.8804 + 3.405 \mathrm { x } and that s=6.8359\mathrm { s } = 6.8359 . x (hours studied) 2.5 4.5 5.1 7.9 11.6 (score on test) 66 70 60 83 93
