Use the T statistic in Exercise 10.41 as a pivotal statistic to derive a (1 - )100%

Question:

Use the T statistic in Exercise 10.41 as a pivotal statistic to derive a (1 - α)100% confidence interval for β1.


Data from Exercise 10.41

It can be shown (proof omitted) that the least-squares estimates, β̂o and β̂1, are independent (in a probabilistic sense) of s2. Use this fact, in conjunction with Theorem 10.1 and the result of Exercise 10.40, to show that
