Question

The money raised and spent (both in millions of dollars) by all congressional campaigns for 8 recent 2-year periods are shown in the table. The equation of the regression line is ModifyingAbove y with caret equals 0.934 x plus 30.749 . Find the standard error of estimate se and interpret the result.

Money raised, x 457.8   650.5   736.6   799.4   797.2   1047.6   959.5   1217.1

Money spent, y 443.2   679.7   739.9   752.8   746.1   1003.3   930.6   1174.7

Find the standard error of estimate se and interpret the result. se= _____ (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

How can the standard error of estimate be interpreted?

A. The standard error of estimate of the money spent for a specific amount of money raised is about se million dollars.

B. The standard error of estimate of the money raised for a specific amount of money spent is about se million dollars.

A. The standard error of estimate of the money spent for a specific amount of money raised is about se million dollars.

Explanation: We know that the standard error of the estimate is a measure of the accuracy of predictions so it says about the independent variable money spend (y).
