Question:

Table B. 3 presents data on the gasoline mileage performance of 32 different automobiles.

image text in transcribed

a. Fit a simple linear regression model relating gasoline mileage $y$ (miles per gallon) to engine displacement $x_{1}$ (cubic inches).

b. Construct the analysis-of-variance table and test for significance of regression.

c. What percent of the total variability in gasoline mileage is accounted for by the linear relationship with engine displacement?

d. Find a $95 % \mathrm{CI}$ on the mean gasoline mileage if the engine displacement is 275 in. $^{3}$

e. Suppose that we wish to predict the gasoline mileage obtained from a car with a 275 -in. ${ }^{3}$ engine. Give a point estimate of mileage. Find a $95 %$ prediction interval on the mileage.

f. Compare the two intervals obtained in parts $d$ and e. Explain the difference between them. Which one is wider, and why?
