Question
The following model was fitted to a sample of 30 families in order to explain household milk consumption:
y = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + ε
where
y = milk consumption, in quarts per week
x1 = weekly income, in hundreds of dollars
x2 = family size
The least squares estimates of the regression parameters were as follows:
b0 = -0.025 b1 = 0.052 b2 = 1.14
Predict the weekly milk consumption of a family of four with an income of $600 per week.

- The following regression model was estimated. Q is the number of meals served, P is the average price per meal (customer ticket amount, in dollars), Rxis the average price charged by competitors (in dollars), Ad is the local advertising budget for each outlet (in dollars), and I is the average income per household in each outlet's immediate service area. Least squares estimation of the regression equation on the basis of the 25 data observations resulted in the estimated regression coefficients and other statistics given in Table below.

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.
