Question

Modern medical practice tells us not to encourage babies to become too fat. Is there a positive correlation between the weight x of a 1-year old baby and the weight y of the mature adult (30 years old)? A random sample of medical files produced the following information for 14 females.

x (lb) 19 24 25 23 20 15 25 21 17 24 26 22 18 19
y (lb) 126 126 125 124 130 120 145 130 130 130 130 140 110 115

In this setting we have Σx = 298, Σy = 1781, Σx2 = 6492, Σy2 = 227,603, and Σxy = 38,105.

f) Find Se. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Se = 

(g) Find a 95% confidence interval for weight at age 30 of a female who weighed 21 pounds at 1 year of age. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
