We obtain the following demand curve of beef in a market with 25 observations: Q = 635.736 - 48.165 P, where Q is the quantity demanded of beef measured in pounds, P is price measured in dollars per pound. The standard error of the slope coefficient is 2.546. What is the upper bound of the 95% confidence interval of the slope coefficient? note: df = n-2
Assume that we want to construct a confidence interval. Do one of the following, as appropriate: (a) find the critical value tα/2, (b) find the critical value zα/2, or (c) state that neither the normal distribution nor the t distribution applies. The confidence level is 90%, σ is not known, and the normal quantile plot of the 17 salaries (in thousands of dollars) of basketball players on a team is as shown.
