Solution

The appropriate interval for the average salary of employees who have been employed for 6 years is (32582.25, 37492.69). This is because the "confidence" interval is used to estimate the mean response for a given level of the predictor, in this case, the number of years employed.

Using a sample of recent university graduates, you estimate a simple linear regression using the initial annual salary as the dependent variable and the graduate's weighted average mark (WAM) as the explanatory variable. If the regression model has an estimated intercept of 3200 and an estimated slope coefficient of 550, what is the predicted starting salary of a student with a WAM of 67?

The annual profits for a company are given in the following table, where x represents the number of years since 2012, and y represents the profit in thousands of dollars.
