Slope (ββ) -16.49   
Intercept (αα) 424.98   
 
In words, for a dollar increase in the selling price, the expected sales will increase by 2,640 gallons in a given sales region.
 
What is the standard error of the estimate (sese)?
17.200
 
What is the estimate of the standard deviation of the estimated slope (sbsb)?  3.045

Can you reject the hypothesis (at the 0.05 level of significance) that there is no relationship (i.e., β=0β=0) between the variables? (Hint: t0.025,8=2.306t0.025,8=2.306)
No
 
Yes

According to the regression model, which of the following is the best estimate together with the 95 percent prediction interval of paint sales (in thousands of gallons) in a sales region where the selling price is $12.50?
437.605 ± 2(17.200)
 
218.855 ± 2(17.200)
 
437.605 ± 2(3.045)
