Question
An bus station has determined that the relationship between the number of passengers on a bus and the total weight of luggage stored in the baggage compartment can be estimated by the least squares regression equation y=115+24xy=115+24x. Predict the weight of luggage for a flight with 60 passengers.

- Please help me better understand how to solve this word problem. In a study of 2000 model cars, a researcher computed the least-squares regression line of price (in collars) on horsepower. He obtained the following equation of: Price = -7000 + 170 X horsepower.

One of the relationships he investigated was maximal sprint speed in kilometers per hour and the ratio of metatarsal-to-femur length. A least-squares regression on the data he collected produces the equation ŷ = 37.67 + 33.18x %3D where x is metatarsal-to-femur ratio and ŷ is predicted maximal sprint speed in kilometers per hour. The standard error of the intercept is 5.69 and the standard error of the slope is 7.94. Construct an 80% confidence interval for the slope of the population regression line.
