Hours without sleep=x, Number of mistakes=y
(a) When you test the claim at the α = 0.01, that a linear relation exists between the two variables, find the critical value.
Round critical value to nearest hundredth. (e.g. 0.135 would be entered as 0.14, -0.135 would be entered as -0.14, ± 0.135 would be entered as +/-0.14).
(b) Find 95% confidence interval about the slope of the true lease-square regression line.
Lower , Upper . Round confidence interval to nearest thousandth. e.g. 2.3457 would be entered as 2.346
(c) Based on question (b), does any linear relation exist between hours without sleep and number of mistakes?
