The table below gives the number of hours five randomly selected students spent studying and their corresponding midterm exam grades. Using this data, consider the equation of the regression line.  ^y=b0+b1x for predicting the midterm exam grade that a student will earn based on the number of hours spent studying. Keep in mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, in practice, it would not be appropriate to use the regression line to make a prediction if the correlation coefficient is not statistically significant.   Hours Studying 2 3 4 5 6 Midterm Grades 60 81 86 98 100 Find the error prediction when x= 5. Round your answer to three decimal places.      * What we know:  Estimated slope b1=9.700Estimated intercept b0=46.200
