Chapter 9.3, Problem 27E
Constructing and Interpreting a Prediction Interval In Exercises 21–30, construct the indicated prediction interval and interpret the results.
27. Crude Oil Construct a 95% prediction interval for the amount of crude oil imported by the United States in Exercise 17 when the amount of crude oil produced by the United States is 8 million barrels per day.
17. Crude Oil The table shows the amounts of crude oil (in thousands of barrels per day) produced by the United States and the amounts of crude oil (in thousands of barrels per day) imported by the United States for seven years. The equation of the regression line is ŷ = –0.438x + 11,404.947. (Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration)

Fuel Economy, Minivans - The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publishes fuel economy values that are known to be good estimates of the fuel
economy a typical driver will achieve under average driving conditions. One of the fuel economy values the EPA publishes is a combined estimate,
which represents a combination of city driving (55%) and highway driving (45%).
Toyota Sienna, a popular minivan, advertises an average combined fuel usage of 22 mpg. A large rental company collected the information about
combined fuel economy (mpg) for their 10 Toyota Sienna minivans. The results are shown in the table below.

- Use this data for the exercises that follow: In 2013, there were roughly 317 million citizens in the United States, and about 40 million were elderly (aged 65 and over).[34] 60. It is predicted that by 2030, one in five U.S. citizens will be elderly. How much greater will the chances of meeting an elderly person be at that time? What policy changes do you foresee if these statistics hold true?arrow_forwardCholesterol Cholesterol in human blood is necessary, but too much can lead to health problems. There are three main types of cholesterol: HDL (high-density lipoproteins), LDL (low-density lipoproteins), and VLDL (very low-density lipoproteins). HDL is considered “good” cholesterol; LDL and VLDL are considered “bad” cholesterol. A standard fasting cholesterol blood test measures total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These numbers are used to estimate LDL and VLDL, which are difficult to measure directly. Your doctor recommends that your combined LDL/VLDL cholesterol level be less than 130 milligrams per deciliter, your HDL cholesterol level be at least 60 milligrams per deciliter, and your total cholesterol level be no more than 200 milligrams per deciliter. (a) Write a system of linear inequalities for the recommended cholesterol levels. Let x represent the HDL cholesterol level, and let y represent the combined LDL VLDL cholesterol level. (b) Graph the system of inequalities from part (a). Label any vertices of the solution region. (c) Is the following set of cholesterol levels within the recommendations? Explain. LDL/VLDL: 120 milligrams per deciliter HDL: 90 milligrams per deciliter Total: 210 milligrams per deciliter (d) Give an example of cholesterol levels in which the LDL/VLDL cholesterol level is too high but the HDL cholesterol level is acceptable. (e) Another recommendation is that the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol be less than 4 (that is, less than 4 to 1). Identify a point in the solution region from part (b) that meets this recommendation, and explain why it meets the recommendation.arrow_forward6 The observed policy amount for the policy holder in previous question is 280 ($1,000) The prediction error is _______. a 9.399 b 7.833 c 6.527 d 5.439arrow_forward
