1. By the information given in the problem above, you have:

 - Bottom section=x

 - <span>The top section is one-sixth the length of the bottom section.

 Top section=x/6

 - The middle section is one-half the length of the bottom section.

 Middle section=x/2

 - The total length of the rocket is 240 ft.

 Bottom section+Top section+Middle section=240

 x+x/6+x/2=240

 2. Then, you have the the bottom section is:

 x=144

 3. Therefore, the top section is:

 Top section=x/6
 T</span>op section=144/6
 Top section=24 ft
<span>
 The answer is: 24 ft</span>

) How many degrees of freedom are available for hypothesis tests and confidence intervals for single regression coefficient
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

We use students' t distribution therefore degrees of freedom is v= n-2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Confidence Interval Estimate of Population Regression Co efficient β.</u>

To construct the confidence interval for β, the population regression co efficient , we use b, the sample estimate of β. The sampling distribution of b is normally distributed with mean β and a standard deviation σ.y.x / √(x-x`)². That is the variable z = b - β/σ.y.x / √(x-x`)² is a standard normal variable. But σ.y.x  is not known so we use S.y.x and also student's t distribution rather than normal distribution.

t= b - β/S.y.x / √(x-x`)² = b - β/Sb    [Sb = S.y.x / √(x-x`)²]

with v= n-2 degrees of freedom.

Consequently

P [ - t α/2<  b - β/Sb  < t α/2] = 1- α

or

P [ b- t α/2 Sb<   β  < b+ t α/2 Sb] = 1- α

Hence a 100( 1-α) percent confidence for β the population regression coefficient for a particular sample size n <30  is given by

b± t α/2 Sb

Using the same statistic a confidence interval for α can be constructed in the same way for  β  replacing  a with b and Sa with Sb.

a± t α/2 Sa

Using the t statistic  we may construct the confidence interval for U.y.x for the given value X0 in the same manner

Y~0 ± t α/2(n-2) SY~

Y~0= a+b X0
