Textbook Question
Chapter 13.4, Problem 14SE
An agribusiness performed a regression of wheat yield (bushels per acre) using observations on 25 test plots with four predictors (rainfall, fertilizer, soil acidity, hours of sun). The standard error was 1.17 bushels. Find the approximate width of a 95 percent prediction interval for wheat yield, assuming that the predictor values for a test plot are near the means of the sample predictors. Would the quick rule give similar results?

- Rothamsted Experimental Station (England) has studied wheat production since 1852. Each year many small plots of equal size but different soil/fertilizer conditions are planted with wheat. At the end of the growing season, the yield (in pounds) of the wheat on the plot is measured. Suppose for a random sample of years, one plot gave the following annual wheat production (in pounds): 4.46 4.21 4.40 4.81 2.81 2.90 4.93 3.54 4.16 4.48 3.26 4.74 4.97 4.02 4.91 2.59 Use a calculator to verify that the sample variance for this plot is .
