Confidence intervals and prediction intervals from simple linear regression The managers of an outdoor coffee stand in Coast City are examining the relationship between coffee sales and daily temperature. They have bivariate data detailing the stand ’s coffee sales (denoted by [pic]‚ in dollars) and the maximum temperature (denoted by [pic]‚ in degrees Fahrenheit) for each of [pic] randomly selected days during the past year. The least-squares regression equation computed from their data
