Question 99

Multiple Choice

What is the relationship between diamond price and carat size? 307 diamonds were sampled and a straight-line relationship was hypothesized between y = diamond price (in dollars) and x = size of
The diamond (in carats) . The simple linear regression for the analysis is shown below: Least Squares Linear Regression of PRICE

 What is the relationship between diamond price and carat size? 307 diamonds were sampled and a straight-line relationship was hypothesized between y = diamond price (in dollars) and x = size of The diamond (in carats) . The simple linear regression for the analysis is shown below: Least Squares Linear Regression of PRICE  \text { Predictor }     The model was then used to create  95 \%  confidence and prediction intervals for  \mathrm { y }  and for  \mathrm { E } ( \mathrm { Y } )   when the carat size of the diamond was 1 carat. The results are shown here:  95 \%  confidence interval for  \mathrm { E } ( \mathrm { Y } )   :  ( \$ 9091.60 , \$ 9509.40 )    95 \%  prediction interval for  Y : ( \$ 7091.50 , \$ 11,510.00 )   Which of the following interpretations is correct if you want to use the model to determine the price of a single 1 -carat diamond? A)  We are  95 \%  confident that the average price of all 1 -carat diamonds will fall between  \$ 9091.60  and  \$ 9509.40 . B)  We are  95 \%  confident that the price of a 1-carat diamond will fall between  \$ 7091.50  and  \$ 11,510.00 . C)  We are  95 \%  confident that the price of a 1-carat diamond will fall between  \$ 9091.60  and  \$ 9509.40 . D)  We are  95 \%  confident that the average price of all 1 -carat diamonds will fall between  \$ 7091.50  and  \$ 11,510.00 .

The model was then used to create 95%95 \% confidence and prediction intervals for y\mathrm { y } and for E(Y) \mathrm { E } ( \mathrm { Y } ) when the carat size of the diamond was 1 carat. The results are shown here:
95%95 \% confidence interval for E(Y) \mathrm { E } ( \mathrm { Y } ) : ($9091.60,$9509.40) ( \$ 9091.60 , \$ 9509.40 )
95%95 \% prediction interval for Y:($7091.50,$11,510.00) Y : ( \$ 7091.50 , \$ 11,510.00 )
Which of the following interpretations is correct if you want to use the model to determine the price of a single 1 -carat diamond?


A) We are 95%95 \% confident that the average price of all 1 -carat diamonds will fall between $9091.60\$ 9091.60 and $9509.40\$ 9509.40 .
B) We are 95%95 \% confident that the price of a 1-carat diamond will fall between $7091.50\$ 7091.50 and $11,510.00\$ 11,510.00 .
C) We are 95%95 \% confident that the price of a 1-carat diamond will fall between $9091.60\$ 9091.60 and $9509.40\$ 9509.40 .
D) We are 95%95 \% confident that the average price of all 1 -carat diamonds will fall between $7091.50\$ 7091.50 and $11,510.00\$ 11,510.00 .
