18 | 88 | 93 |
19 | 72 | 57 |
20 | 88 | 83 |
Calculation:
Using excel,
The p-value = 6.22E-07 < 0.05 hence rejecting null hypothesis. Hence, data present sufficient evidence to indicate that final exam score is linearly related to the posttest score.
d)
To find the 99% confidence interval for slope of the regression equation.
d)
Answer to Problem 12.28E
the 99% confidence interval for slope of the regression equation= (0.7767,1.7468)
