Explanation / Answer

The statistical software output for this problem is:

Simple linear regression results:
Dependent Variable: Tear Rating (Y)
Independent Variable: Plate Gap (X)
Tear Rating (Y) = 0.78840428 + 0.41613543 Plate Gap (X)
Sample size: 19
R (correlation coefficient) = 0.5429505
R-sq = 0.29479524
Estimate of error standard deviation: 1.0697358

Parameter estimates:


Analysis of variance table for regression model:


Predicted values:

Hence,

a) 95% confidence interval: (0.138, 1.189)

b) 95% prediction interval: (-1.654, 2.981)
